As the pandemic lessened its grip on the world, we have all been living through an extraordinary time in history. The start of Putin’s brutal war on its peaceful Ukrainian neighbor, the devastating Gaza conflict, soaring inflation due in large part to inefficiencies created by the pandemic, dramatic increases in interest rates to combat the inflation, and the struggle by corporations to force employees out of their home offices and back to their cubicles, are just some of the significant events and situations that have occurred. But we are also experiencing the truly unprecedented prosecution of the reality TV star turned White House occupant for his alleged attempts to overturn a legitimate election and illegally hoard highly classified documents.Each of these topics would require many publications to cover them in any level of detail. The purpose of this book is to provide an overview of many of the events that have occurred since the end of the pandemic in the form of historical, fact-based poetry with a touch of humor sprinkled throughout. Some of the topics covered are the Trump attempted coup, Trump’s 91 felony charges, Trump’s denial of 2020 election loss, Trump’s disregard for the law, post-pandemic problems, women’s rights, racism, civil rights abuses, and Republican speakership elections.Each of us has our own unique set of experiences from the post-pandemic period, but we have also, in certain ways, lived through many of these events together. It is the author’s hope that the series of historical poems presented here will serve as a brief summary of this extraordinary period.
