A powerful Author's Note introduces this collection, describing how it was forged out of a clash between religiosity, homosexuality, and the deep bigotries that inhabit the church. Through this lens, the entire collection becomes a call to stand by one's convictions and a searing statement of purpose.
This is poetry written by a repentant apostate, one who left the church to escape its prejudices and then returned to Christianity with the realization that to abandon God because of the earthly corruption of others is a sin in itself. The six sections that make up this book (Anger, Politics, Metaphysical, Despair, Hope, and Love) create a journey out of interior mental states, documenting the righteous anger, the longing for salvation, and the many passing thoughts that fill the days of a tumultuous, moral life.
