Failure To Articulate

I wanted to do something special this winter, so here’s this little comic I made! The Mari Lwyd is definitely one of the most creatures ever.  __ Translation, for learners/non-Welsh speakers: __ Mari Lwyd: Uff. I’m starving. Ms. Goch: What’s wrong, Mari? Mari Lwyd: Everyone’s defeated me tonight. Such skilled poets, the lot of you.  Mari Lwyd: I’m the worst Mari Lwyd. Ms. Goch: … Ms. Goch: D'you want some? Mari Lwyd: No. I don’t have… I can’t accept. That’s the rules. Ms. Goch: Well— what if you do better than me? In song. Mari Lwyd: Hm? Ms. Goch: Look, I’ll start. Well, here I come Your innocent friend To ask your permission to share Because everyone deserves A bit of hope to Satisfy their appetites, tonight!   Mari Lwyd: No, no, no— that’s not right! And “deserve” doesn’t rhyme with “appetites”, anyway, like—! Mari Lwyd: Oh. Ms. Goch: Ohhhh, nooooo, I’ve said the wrong rhyme. Oops! So… you’ve defeated me, Mari? Mari Lwyd: I did? W-wait! I did!! Ms. Goch: Well, you’ve got no choice, then! C'mere! As the nights grow darker, and colder, everyone has the right to fine food…even Mari Lwyds, I suppose. __ I hope everyone’s enjoying their winter and staying warm! 

A comic to try and sort through some difficult feelings about being an artist and a reminder to not forget who you are.
