It has been an astonishing few weeks. Out of the disaster wrought upon the community by an out-of-control U.S. Attorney’s Office, an aggressive neo-Gestapo FBI and a police chief who disdains the Spanish press and revels in the humiliation of our neighbors, families and friends, emerges a saving grace: The Perfect Among Us.
One could almost hear angelic voices singing, an array of candles lit in delightfully fragrant celebration and overwhelming visions of heavenly splendor. We learned we have human beings among us that are not only Perfect they are entirely deserving of any honor dedicated to them by lesser mortals by virtue of their impeccable rectitude and exquisiteness of soul.
I am referring of course to Donicio Flores, Veronica Escobar, Dan Haggerty and Steve Ortega.
To be sure, there are others who aspire to their level of celestial grace, gifted intelligence and radiance of soul such as Paul Strelzin, Susie Byrd and Joyce Wilson among others. But the latter do not come close.
Strelzin would more likely be considered Venerable, Joyce Wilson may be collecting the miracles wrought by touching her garments while Byrd may perhaps already be on the road to Beatification but the former are all worthy of canonization.
Someone should suggest to the Pope canonization occur while they still live because such is their sublimity and holiness. They deserve nothing less.
Upon hearing of the raids of El Pasoan homes and offices and FBI recordings of hundreds more and the raids upon hundreds of thousands of poor El Pasoans, the no doubt immaculately conceived, Flores, Escobar, Haggerty and Ortega, immediately experienced a transfiguration on behalf of the lesser mortals. In a space in time, they sacrificed their earthly role and in a felicitous moment rose into the heavens and showed their radiant light for all to see.
As the politicized and irremediably corrupted U.S. Attorney’s Office, the neo-Gestapo FBI and the ‘Heinrich Himmler mini-me’ Police Chief, began raiding our friends and neighbors and imprisoning them for their debts and frailties, the Perfect Among Us underwent a glorious transubstantiation. Their magnanimous light engulfed the heavens and provided many of us the opportunity to experience their splendor and grace.
The Sacred Digit
The Perfect Among Us ever so gently pointed their sublime and radiant finger filled with of love to those targeted. With all the unconditional tenderness they could muster, they emoted a great and glorious righteousness and sang praises to the Lord for helping those that would take down the forces of evil. They rejoiced in their majesty and sublime adorableness at the exorcism of sinful beastliness lurking in dark corners in our community.
It was truly a sight. Tears come to my eyes at the blessing that it was to witness - fully exposed - Perfection. This opportunity is rare. It is my fervent hope that no one forgets how, we, the lesser mortals were taught a lesson in piousness, nobility and exquisiteness by those we know to be sublimely unblemished.
Over and over again, they pointed their holy finger at one and then another and soon their sacred digit pointed to thousands of El Pasoans. The love emanating from their holiness struck over and over piercing the aura of mind and heart deep within the psyche of all evil ones.
Graced With Words
They needn’t have said a word but pointing their gentle finger at many of our families, friends and neighbors was not enough, they felt obligated by their purity to intone words of seraphic judgment.
Don Flores doubtless shed tears he was forced to campaign over these last few weeks to destroy evil. For he is no doubt motivated by unconditional love. His gentle and forgiving heart must have bled as he oversaw incessant attacks to provide a gentle blanket of cover to the neo-Gestapo and the Himmler mini-me.
Veronica Escobar with her pious personality, her glorious visage and overflowing compassion was no doubt heartbroken she was forced to judge those around her. It is her inescapable transmundane duty.
Dan Haggerty, the paragon of virtue, icon of the holy of holies and chaste spirit in human form and who never, ever has had his hand out to anyone in exchange for consideration felt obliged to point out the obvious – that he was shocked, that his gentle sensibilities were painfully pierced by the knowledge those around him were mortal.
Shivers gripped the city if not the earth when Steve Ortega spoke and added his words of healing and alleviation, about cleaning up our collective soul. He called us to sacrifice and austerity, to honesty and selflessness. If there are brooms in heaven, he most certainly has the biggest one of all. His gentility, cultivation and mercy know no equal. In the world of the Perfect Among Us there is only faultlessness. They have not been touched by original sin and they don’t understand the lesser venial sins. Limbo to them is merciful, an opportunity for redemption. And it matters not they don’t understand venial sin. The fact they have graced us with sharing our earthly space in this small corner of the universe is gift enough.
Unbelievably, The Perfect Among Us, have come down from above to serve us in County and City Government and as leaders and campaigners against evil and evildoers. El Pasoans should not only be proud of them. They should rejoice and bathe in ecstasy. For they are the way showers. I have seen the light and am reborn. From now on, I will observe them in their fealty to honor and justice and their magnanimity to the oppressed. It is so rare to observe perfection among us and even more rare to see holy fingers pointed in our direction every day on television and print.
A Supplication
I offer a supplication for The Perfect Among Us and ask the community to join me. May we all be as they. May we all learn righteousness demands of us to judge our fellow man, proclaim him or her guilty as accused, proclaim their friends, family and relations guilty as accused by virtue of being related to them or loving them, and proclaim a new day has come for righteousness. Thank you for Don Flores, Veronica Escobar, Dan Haggerty and Steve Ortega. May their sublime perfection show the sinners on this planet and in our city and neighborhoods what the true plan for men and women everywhere has been all these millions of eons. May all our families learn at the feet of The Perfect Among Us.
Blessed be Richard Wiles, Tim Kinnard, Manuel Mora, Alberto Gonzalez and Debra Kanoff that they be doubly blessed and not feel so tired and drained while they undertake their covert and overt righteous attack upon hundreds of thousands of lesser mortals in our community.
Blessed be The Perfect Among Us that they may keep judging the rest of us so we may learn to be like them.
Let us all light a candle to their clay statues and suffer our sins that we may be redeemed.
