"Was inspired by a passage in Dante's Inferno and written during a very dark phase I found myself enduring. But if the mantra from SEVAS TRA is to have any real meaning [art saves] then I must be a living testament of it. And though I again journeyed through the dark wood of despair, the crusade of creativity salvaged me again."
