What within the World Occurred to the "Fat Lady"?

In America they’ve a saying that “it ain’t over ’til the fats woman sings”.

It appears to me that the “fats woman”, has been singing out for fairly a while and would possibly even have sung herself hoarse, however no person heard her or they have been too busy following the false leads of what Donald Trump calls faux information to concentrate.

Now I do know that I’ve in all probability not been politically right right here in utilizing the phrase “fats”, please forgive me, I’m not up-to-date on this challenge, however will defer to the time period “dimension challenged” or “large” to mitigate the offense.

It’s quick changing into obvious that the huge array of vital threats and points hammering on the standard and historic buildings of western civilisations are so overwhelming that those that have one thing or somebody to care about are bracing themselves for a Humpty Dumpty kind situation of biblical proportions.

Similar to within the case of Humpty, when he fell off the wall and the cracks appeared, “all of the king’s horses and all of the king’s males could not put Humpty collectively once more”.

Sounds a bit like Brexit does not it, or possibly the US democratic system?

There have been over fifty murders in London this yr to this point, all unsolved. We see the headlines, it looks as if day-after-day, there’s one other one. The police blame it on gangs and are calling for the general public to assist.

However does not this imply that there are over fifty murderers strolling round, sitting in bars, eating in eating places and over fifty grieving households, could also be plotting revenge or now residing with traumatised youngsters.

Moped muggings, acid assaults, hate crimes, enacted in document numbers and largely unsolved.

On the opposite aspect of the pond, politically opposed factions have turn into so acrimonious that one faction has taken to public shaming and precise harassment of a number of the figures of the present administration.

“Celebrities” have taken to publicly making such insanely hateful, malicious statements through social media, about public figures that it stresses the rationality of a sane particular person’s thoughts.

America appears to be as much as its elbows in concern, hate and insecurity, very similar to the remainder of the planet.

The entire blood that was spilled and the ache that was suffered to forge these nice democracies appear to be rising up out of the bottom like an invisible virus, affecting the minds of the individuals and their elected governance.

If the “large woman” hasn’t sung but, what on the earth is she ready for?
