As You Were

By Malik Jones

Poetry concerned with encompassing the night sky itself as well as matters the size of a coffee mug.

With Alaska (and sometimes the universe) serving as backdrop, As You Were follows the mountaintop highs of infatuation, the darker depths of the wandering mind and the pleasures of accepted loss; interrogating the beauty of the stars and of the emptiness between.

Playfully illustrated, Malik Jones stuns with this breathtaking debut collection featuring work previously found in the 2024 One Page Poetry Anthology and in the Rising Phoenix Review. The perfect length to be read in one sitting and the depth to be savored instead, As You Were leaves readers armed with a new perspective on love and the ways we carry ourselves through hardship.
