Villanelle

3️⃣ panels. A story told specifically as a villanelle.

📝 This is in response to Shut Up & Write !’s prompt for a villanelle, part of a monthly writing challenge that I signed up for last spring. 

Yep, that’s right, last spring, as in, last year. 

So here’s to finally finishing things that you start ! 

This is not the most brilliant thing I’ve ever written, since the fixed rhyming structure was hard for me to conform to (I usually glide through free verse). 

I’ve also created these panels as a response to my own art prompt. (Remember January’s : What makes you sparkle ?) 

✨ Writing inspires and ignites me. It is an outlet for my worry and confusion, my heart and my biggest dreams. It is a place for me to put my tangle of observations and unravel them safely and without judgement. I have kept a journal since I was a kiddo, and putting ink to paper is still one of the most enjoyable activities that I do. 

Let us know what lights you up !
