Believing in something beautiful is never a waste of time.
What began as a modest chapbook submission for a contest that rejected it grew into a full-length collection that found its place in the world anyway. Hope and Other Beautiful Things is the second poetry book from the Mad Hatter mind and flower(big)mouth of Maverick L. Malone.
This collection is a soft-spoken celebration of wonder, resilience, and believing in yourself. With language that shimmers and themes that trawl the deep, these poems explore the quiet magic of everyday life, the courage it takes to stay open, and the rebellious act of choosing hope over cynicism.
If you've ever needed a reminder that your softness is strength, your dreams matter, and light blooms in the cracks, this book is for you.
This is publishing the proof of hope.
This is breathing life into a dream.
This is for anyone who needs a little more light.
This is for the fireflies: the ones still hoping, still trying, and still believing... just enough to keep going.
