DECADE: 2010s
The horror of waking up on November 9, 2016 to learn Donald Trump was elected our
45th President has only been compounded with each Cabinet appointee. Every time
another appointee's name was made public and his/ her inappropriateness for the job
was brought to light, I cringed. It felt as though Trump was gleefully poking a Satan's
pitchfork at a hive of evil bees. What happened to Obama's message of hope? Then it
struck me, aren't we
experiencing the lesson from
Pandora's box? I choose to
depict the nightmarish world
with stinging bees against the
flames of Hell, with a lone bee
in gay banner stripes still
standing proud in the hive.
