HALLELUJAH

Well, maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah (Hallelujah/Leonard Cohen)

100-person Choir in a 10,000 seat Mega Church in Dallas, spittle ringing from the mouths of the soprano’s with phlegm and streams of slurpy droll dripping as the bass and baritone belted out their Christian melodies, all without a mask and all for the folks snuggled neatly in a jammed packed Petri Dish called First Baptist Dallas. Joining the high and mighty voices proclaiming their love of God, was an invisible other choir, a virus named COVID-19. Together the melodies and harmonies created a sympathy for future doom, destruction, and possible death…But Damn to God, no one AIN’T gonna take away my freedom to Praise the Lord, and silence my freedom to spread both my religious freedom and the freedom of nature to infect the mere mortals calling themselves humans.

And then with the audacity of an empty hypocrite hyped on hoping to please a monster, who feeds on fiction and falsehoods, who believes in one God, himself, and one power mightier than any LORD or SAVIOR, himself, thinking his sorcery is more of a superpower than nature, TRUMP…Mike Pence, pretends that suddenly, after remaining silent about masks and social distancing, testing, and tracing…just to get that really swell PR production piece, he found his HALLELUJAH, and admits “hey neighbor, there is a Pandemic!’ And hey neighbor, now that this is no longer just a liberal, minority-based, Liberal hoax, BUT affecting his and TRUMPS precious Bible Belt Bigots, WE AUTTA DO MORE TO CONTAIN IT! Praise the Lord and pass the COVID-19!
