Up Up and Away

 You know that you are borne aloft in a beautiful iridescent bubble when the same words arise in descriptions of the  breaching of the Capitol complex recently.  I read ‘insurrection’, ‘insurgency’, ‘storm’, and even in a note from the writer Richard Ford in the Irish Times, ‘coup’. Were there tanks in the street, was the radio station taken over, the internet cut,and summary executions?  At this point in time there needs to be a general issue of stout paper bags.
