The A.M. God explores the spiritual journey most of us take when trying to find our place in life and make sense of our existence. In 10 diverse poetic chapters, it examines the complexities, hypocrisies, joys, sorrows, horrors, and exaltations of being a human trying to find meaning. It bears emphasis on the failings of organized religion without destroying the message that there may be something higher than our selves.
