yes it was how could I not make something great with something from Edgar Allan poe, gotta show the love.
:icondraith:
I adore Poe... probably a bit too much for normalcy's sake, but eh, what's normal anymore, eh?

This is absolutely wonderful. Text art tickles my insides in fun ways, and this is a really awesome use of it! The Raven looks great, and the way you wove the branches are just perfect.
Awesome idea, fantastic execution... Brilliant!

My favourite poem. Ever.

"And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor, shall be lifted --- nevermore." I love that quote!

This is insane. I love it.

Congrats on the DD.

And my soul from out that shadow
That lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted...
Nevermore!
