What I liked about the place (my first and hopefully last) is that the pain of a marginal poet has been called a march of such proportions and diversity. Yes, there were many groups 'radical' proposals with the same 'stupid' as ever, but something became clear to me yesterday: they are right or not, their grievances are legitimate, their problems are not solved yet and your proposals (with which we agree or not) have failed to materialize (for one reason or another) in legal initiatives. What they said some columnists and intellectuals, always repeating the criticism against the Mexican left-wing populism and the 'totalitarian democracy' in the mass meetings, sounds great. It is always sensible response: changes happen through legal means, institutional, slowly but genuinely democratic. I used to agree with that, but today I'm not so sure. Can
, at the current point of things, resolved so many serious crimes and wrongs of institutional form? Do not we have a lot of these circumstances, the Congress to legalize drugs, regulate monopolies, propuesiera a comprehensive reform of the state, parties and public finances? Faced with such problems are compounded every day in increasingly difficult circumstances (we're not even in the days of Fox, when harm than good, there was economic stability, oil boom, the hope of institutional renewal), can we expect change from within the institutions? You really can renew Mexico from the mainstream media from specific political parties, elections and the 'reforms'? Yes, it should be, because then things are done in a true democracy. But as said Ellacuría, SJ in the eighties on El Salvador: "The Salvadorans have for half a century freely choosing their leaders and have not improved their situation at all: they are starving and being murdered. What face we can ask them to continue going to the polls? '. Maybe you can ask Wallace Sicily or to wait for democracy and its slow action, but what about the bees and other indigenous Chiapas? How are already waiting for the "institutional channels" solve anything? I, for one, do not see clearly how to reform the political system from the current system of parties. And you only need to confirm this, see the names of people sought by the Chair for 2012. Honestly ask ourselves, what can wait for an honest man and honest who joins the existing parties?
Just as it is easier than walking, so varied and multitudinous, went beyond their own purposes and fall into the commonplace, the same goes for those who, taking advantage of it, tempted to ignore the background and motivations that you could breathe at street level, there are many, many people who, by differently and may be different than one might think, has something in common: they feel aggrieved, angry and, above all, powerless. View it simply as a march against Calderon and for a pact with the drug is inappropriate and unfair (in which case, it was Mrs. Wallace who blamed the authorities for the murder of his son.) But one thing is clear: people who are left in the best, extremely disappointed by the authorities, beginning by the president, who initiated a 'war' front (perhaps, yes, postponed) against organized crime, for the wrong reasons, without consulting anyone, with the wrong strategy (and the military agree), wrong methods and results disastrous. Yeah, that Felipe Calderon has anyone tortured and maimed with their hands, but how do you expect (him or zealots) is not responsible for the disaster has already happened (35 000 dead!) And the failure of his strategy? Which denies that and insists on going is outrageous and, dare I say, sinful, demonic. If no one spoke against organized crime, kidnappers and murderers is because they do not all accounts may be required, strategic reassessments, legality of any kind. Crime and violence feeds and reproduces itself: there is nothing to do but to ask (although they ignore) that his cruelty is not free, that respect the 'civilians'. Instead, it is to criticize Calderon, for whom many of the attendees voted to start in 2006, which was not on his campaign promises no 'war', which was initiated without adequate means (municipal cooperation state of which he complains), which, quite simply, made a mistake after another and it has left, in practice, a 'civil war' in Mexico.
But there is one more thing I want to say. Sicily is, obviously, politically naive, that is its greatest strength and biggest flaw. He, unlike Martí, Vargas and Wallace, not of the Mexican social and economic oligarchy, is a relatively unknown poet electoral or economic unpretentious, Catholic single, automarginals conviction. Some have suggested that what he is doing is because he wants to sell more books and get a 'bone' in politics. They are people who ignore where it comes from, how it is and that her son and his friends kidnapped, badly beaten to deface and suffocated with plastic bags. Of course, all for a few books and a mayor of shoddy! I think what bothers these people more than not taking the "institutional channels" (because they have money or influence, which is the only thing that can move the institutional channels to voice and voice worth it in this country !), is one who has dared to go further, saying he does not believe in those beds, because they are infested and infected with the same ills that claim to combat. And worse: he, as a simple poet who would rather be in Cuernavaca, writing, praying and watching your child grow quietly Juan, has touched the fibers of the poor, the Zapatistas, the youth, 'marijuana', gays and many other factions that the same institutional oligarchy wanted to disappear. In the end, that Sicily is not a Martí or Wallace weighs people 'good', as Martí and Wallace, because the gears are in bad taste, for 'nacos' and 'radical', for those not believe in the institutions (because the institutions have neglected the lifetime).
Good thing Javier has had a lifetime of Christian mystical deep rooted and personal. Whatever happens is for these events that God had given him so much grace. GG
