City of Angels: The Highwayman {Stranger}

A Story by Abishai100
"

A Catholic existentialist (Amlan Satan) choreographs a blood-diamond bank stunt for a philosophical 'social media message' about immortal capitalists.

"
An opus on inventive urban idealism, inspired by the crime-robber 'existential' darkness themes from Heat (Michael Mann).

Amlan Satan graduated from UCLA and began work as a cyber-comics writer of capitalism adventures/lore in the post-9/11 era when he converted to Catholicism. He then read Albert Camus existential work The Stranger and had a new 'revelation' as a faithful Catholic concerning the detectives of real-world moral dilemmas and tragedies and the 'transcendence' of manmade Hell with inventive forms of personalized message-rich 'liberty' actions/missions.



AMLAN SATAN: "I visited a child-cemetery in California and realized my life in the City of Angels, fraught with complications and rich with traffic/chess, required a new form of Utopian outlook; when I visited the tombstone of two children tragically lost from Earth (one a drunk-driving victim and the other the victim of drug-abuse parent-neglect), I knew that the idealized form of modern evangelical 'escapism' was to 'invent' a form of city-life media-message concerning the 'detectives' of Los Angeles storytelling, and I've decided now to perform a daring blood-diamond bank-box raid/swap for a Paradise social-media/cyber message about 'substituted' Ego (wow)."



Amlan Satan studied cognition-science(s) at UCLA before going on this religious/philosophical 'jaunt' concerning his personal 'mission' to create a blood-diamond treasure-insurance corruption 'vigilante' raid-action/mission inspiring a new form of LA social-media 'vigilance' message about the quality of citizenry-commentary on post-9/11 era capitalism/commerce integrity personality. He'd draw the interests of social-media users/surfers reading about the nature of modern Western-world 'Utopian' radicalism.

READER: A Robin Hood diamond-mission for insurance-integrity offering a 'spiritual' message about city-soul 'redemption required' for infant/youth death-tragedy realism is idealistic, absurdist, radical, strange, 'commercial' (arguably), and dangerous; but it's drawn pokes/likes from many-a-reader on social-media in the 'challenged' City of Angels (wow).



AMLAN SATAN: "I marched into the bank in costume from street-theater and wielding my theater-prop toy water-rifle (filled with acid) and requested a media-show photo-session with Baron Goldfinger's rumored blood-diamond safe-box and was escorted to the vault-area by a lone guardsman who veiled the security cameras while I used my 'acid-gun' to burn a hole into the Goldfinger-box and swapped his 'rogue' terrorism-financing and insurance-corrupting blood-diamonds with toy-beads in my hat and left the guardsman (Leo) a note reading, Gem-insurance deed for a journal statement about Los Angeles highwaymen."



BANK MANAGER: This strange 'stunt' regarding insured diamonds in our fine City of Angels Bank concerning a social-media 'cult' readership about inventive post-9/11 era US-city 'evangelism' or 'existentialism' for confrontations of the 'realism' of modern Western-world morality challenges signals a strange urban 'tide' reminiscent of the days of Sacco and Vanzetti, and we're currently 'revamping' out diamond-insurance security/monitoring policies (for The Post!).



He'd done it. He'd achieved a strange Robin Hood like City of Angels social-media message-rich micro-celebrity 'miracle' with this blood-diamond insurance 'stunt' for a journal notation about the quality of the human Ego in confronting the realism of morality challenges and personality-driven social media commentary on American life oddities (or dangers!).



THE POST: We 'doubt' this diamond-insurance philosophy-stunt is anti-commercial, and surely, the journals (online?) indicate a new 'mind' for treasure-control(s) detectives (in Los Angeles).



The 'slick' and valiant LAPD officer Sterling was assigned to this case to determine if Amlan Satan was ironically hired by Baron Goldfinger himself to create a media-romantic message about diamond-insurance paranoia 'theater' in the City of Angels or perhaps sent by his rivals to darken his investments/prestige, but Amlan Satan was merely an 'Earth-life' philosopher of commerce-life 'complications' requiring a new form of American examination (ha).

STERLING: I won't rest until Satan's cheer is 'filed' as Los Angeles hygiene!



CYBER-FANZINE: What's next, Mr. Satan?
AMLAN: As an inventive American highwayman, I seek haven in the north.
CYBER-FANZINE: Northern Cali?
AMLAN: Investing in wine and the comics industry.
CYBER-FANZINE: Dick Tracy fan?
AMLAN: Who isn't?
