A worldwide pandemic changed much in our world. Masks, scares, and death tolls became a part of our daily lives. The pandemic even brought out the worst in some of us. In sickness and health, we as a people are changed. Observing this change is what inspired this book and the poems within. It's not meant to give a message one way or another, but to relate. To show how the pandemic has affected everyone in different ways. And to show that you're not alone. We're all in this together. For better or worse.
