Beautiful work, very minimal style but incredibly effective. Love it :D

Powerful

exactly what I thought when I saw this too

"one for sorrow,two for joy, three for a girl and so on and on. You count the number of magpies to predict the future. It's wrong. a mistake, a failing of perspective. Humans see groups of magpies. Magpies don't. Magpies know they stand alone. It's just that occasionally they stand alone in company. in truth there's only ever one magpie. there's only ever one for sorrow... And all a headcount can discern is how much sorrow there will be."

Journey into Mystery

"One For Sorrow" happens to the be title of a published novel by a friend of mine -- a mystery set in 4th. century Byzantium. He's a laywer too ... but I don't think you have to worry about being sued. He doesn't have a leg to stand on ... the law doesn't say you can share titles. And if I know Eric, he would't think of it. He can murder people on paper but hates confrontation. Hates the law, too. He became a lawyer, he said, because he was a bookish sort of person and that was the only profession open to his sort where you could make a dependable living. Anyway, I thought it might amuse you.

This is quite thought invoking...

This is beautiful <3
