Sa Pagputi ng Uwak

It is a Filipino idiomatic expression translated literally as "when the crow turns white" and used to connote an impossibility. I too, may have waited in vain for a rook to grow white feathers had Rowper not suggested a feature on Afrodite. I waited 6years for someone to suggest a DD on me but dA is such a big community that narrows down a lurker's chance of discovery. But it seems that what was written on my rook's bow came to a reality. Puti na ako (I'm already white)! It is TIME!

So here's to all my friends and fellow deviants who took the time to visit this blog and accumulated an impossible feat of 1000+ visits in a day. Thank you!



PS: Good thing there is always a white rook in the language game of chess.;)

  8. Bjornik, I can spend hours marveling at this piece. The way you've interwoven your rook with rooks is...beyond words. Brilliant, masterful, amazing. Those are the best words I could muster, and I don't think they even come close.

    Seriously, I keep coming back to admire all your incredible work.
