Is Boris Godunov?

Strange how the plot of a long-ago penned play, or opera overlaps with goings on or satire from the present tense? This quote, from WIKI : the plot of Boris Godunov... Opera by Modeste Mussorgsky: "Boris appears on the porch of the cathedral. The shouts of "Glory!" reach a climax and subside. Boris delivers a brief monologue ("My soul grieves") betraying a feeling of ominous foreboding." ooompf! #Boris #goodenough
