Windy Worship from Osek by Sonicity
It was windy: in an attempt to find shelter, I grabbed the doorknob of the church, opened the door, entered the interior, closed the door and sat down in the last row. The pink Baroque stucco decoration was covered in dust, the windows were broken, the scaffolding indicated that restoration work was underway. A melusine wailed in the dome. Deep in the nave, I heard rustling, ringing, voices. Three – a priest, an altar boy, an elderly woman. A short mass.
