Nostradamus, Covid 19, Psychic Charlatans, Rumplestiltskin, Harry Houdini And Codswallop. Poem by Shaun Cronick

Nostradamus and today's psychic's how could they all not see it.
Coronavirus COVID-19.
The pandemic.
Today's many seers with all their magic powers of perception,
And shiny crystal balls are all simply codswallop.
Give me the name of just one who predicted it coming.
Years before.
A big event like this.
A massive event.
A life changing event for people and the world.
Fortune telling and psychic powers are the stuff of unicorns and fairy-tales.
Along with clairvoyants, prophets, soothsayers, oracles, Chiromancers, mediums, spiritualists, palm readers, augurs,
And visionaries.
All charlatans.
All these so called psychic seers...

Is there a Mary here in the audience?
No.
Ok I'll try the second most common and popular name in the UK.
Is there a Sarah here in the audience?
No.
Oh dear oh dear!
The spirits are sending me many mixed and confused signals tonight.
Is there a Ann here in the audience?
Yes!
Well it's about bloody time!
Anyway, your husband's dead love but he wants you to know,
He's now more than happy feeding the worms.
Is there a John here in the audience?
No.
What do you mean no!
There's always a John in the audience.
Is there a David, Mark, William or Tony here in the audience?
You get the idea...
Now if any one of these 'gifted' psychics said,
Is there a Rumplestiltskin or a Mary Queen of Scots in the audience,
Or some other rare, obscure name,
And somebody said yes.
That's when I would be impressed and then sit up.
That's the moment it becomes interesting.
Knowing I'm dealing with the real McCoy.
You get the idea...

The Great Harry Houdini stated he would try,
To come back after his death.
Clearly to no avail.
Now if Harry Houdini the world's greatest escapologist,
Couldn't accomplish that feat,
Determined to free himself and return from 'the other side.'
Who possibly can.
And who can REALLY predict the future...
