Senryū Ignition

Written By Scott L.

“Senru Ignition” is a symbolic fusion of Americana, gospel influence, Korean-American identity, and poetic compression.

The Elvis-inspired imagery represents ignition, performance, cultural memory, and spiritual tension — not self-worship.

The crosses reflect a focus on faith beyond image and celebrity.

Like much of the “Darkness Before Dawn” framework, the piece blends visual symbolism, atmosphere, and identity into a compressed artistic form.

Scott L.

Born Blessed in South Korea in 1969 and raised in Baltimore, I’ve built a career with 20 years in customer service and 10 years in behavioral health. The crowning jewel of my studies came when I earned the only passing grade of an A from a Harvard professor — a true master of the craft of Shakespeare

And the English language, whose guidance opened the gateway to worlds of imagination, discipline, and wonder.

Married for 25 years, I share the good life with two dogs (Isabella and Juliet) and one cat named Maddie. In my free time, I enjoy writing, biking, gospel music, and spending time with my pastor and friends.
