  This is Not a Story Of Hope

  'Tis not a story of hope/ 'Tis not a story of fear/ But harken ye this candid tale/ Of what transpired here/ In the year of twenty twenty/ In the fairest, Lincoln green/ I found a special love of/ The unsightly and unseen/ Nay, not quite an animal/ Nay, not even plant/ But decomposing both/ The fungi doth enchant/ Enraptured thus/ I took the plunge/ And threw myself/ Betwixt two suns/ One of light/ That carried me/ And one of shade/ That buried me/ So out I came/ From times so crude/ The viral curse/ My life unglued.

  Numbskull

  “Coronavirus has taken an extreme toll on my mental health and many others. This image symbolizes the emptiness in my skull. Feeling as though there is no brain at all. Mushrooms growing on the empty decomposed bits of what’s left of the brain. The majority of others, especially students right now, have little to no energy left in them. Unable to keep up with assignments and the feeling of overall helplessness. This does seem dark and scary but that is the whole point. No one is okay right now.” -Julianna Sheridan when being asked to explain why her drawing represents her mental state during the pandemic.
