ALIVE AT THE END OF THE WORLD Poems

by | Read by Saeed Jones

Poetry & Drama • 1.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2022

Saeed Jones, an award-winning poet, unapologetically writes and speaks with conviction and purpose. This poetry collection evokes past and present personal experiences, as well as iconic moments and figures who have shaped popular culture. Jones creates poetic tales that honor artists like Aretha Franklin, Little Richard, Luther Vandross, and more. His words draw listeners in while reminding us of a painful history of discrimination that pierces the heart. Jones employs repetition that is both deliberate and clear in his work. As a whole, there is an apocalyptic sense that reflects the collection's title and reminds listeners that we and Jones are ALIVE (and present) at the end of this world.
