Sugar Skulls & Dragons
Bat wings emerge
From the heart's aortas
Caged inside a red rose
Metallic skeletal frame
Busting out of the box
A Pandora Aurora
Of sweeping blue green
Blazing fiery flames
Flying with the flow
Soaring high diving low
Excited to take flight
Into the Babylon night
Midnight yearning to be desired
By untamed aquamarine fire
Destined to sunset amongst
Serpents & Latins
Shining over the land of
Sugar Skulls & Dragons
From the heart's aortas
Caged inside a red rose
Metallic skeletal frame
Busting out of the box
A Pandora Aurora
Of sweeping blue green
Blazing fiery flames
Flying with the flow
Soaring high diving low
Excited to take flight
Into the Babylon night
Midnight yearning to be desired
By untamed aquamarine fire
Destined to sunset amongst
Serpents & Latins
Shining over the land of
Sugar Skulls & Dragons

Hey Styx!!
Hahaha, of course you did.
I would've. LOL
Oh lord - don't tell me you have a collection of beanie babies!!
I knew it. hahaha
Our conversation made me think of kooky Tim Burton for some
reason. I love his stuff. Nightmare before Christmas is one of
my all time favorite movies.
thanks for the RL and comment.

Dear A,
I’ll come back to re-read the poem with some comprehension. Right now I’m smitten with the total score of the earrings. They’re gorgeous! These are more like sugar plum faeries to me 😊.
Lovely (poem) and jewelry. I’m happy for you and wish you many years of enjoyment with your newest “get”! H🌷

Hi H!!
I love that you see sugar plum faeries!!! Right!
I totally see it to now. LOL
This was inspired by a conversation with Mr. Styxian
about how we would decorate our mopeds.
He said dragons with flames and I said Sugar Skulls
after he commented on how girly Pandora jewelry is. hahaha
Had to respond with this little poem.
Cause I talk smack like that. LOL
Thank you so much for the RL and comment.
Hope you are having a great week amiga:)

I collect stuff
Some elegant, some downright weird
Like the vintage multicolor hook clothespins
Take 2 aspirin and call me in the morning
Then there was the night with the extension cords
Tim Burton would have loved that...
You're your own woman all the way
You probably get away with a lot too
I'm all for getting away with stuff
You got Rexy to protect you too
I'm picturing you wearing those earrings and owning the night
Eclectic and kinetic
I'm digging your write
BIG LIKE

My ex (who still resides on this site) once gave me back the £35 it cost for a lucky charm I bought for her from Pandora, when I ended our relationship, lol. I have remained single ever since!

Also have a bracelet full of charms. Need to invest in another one.
Their charms are so cute!!!
Sorry about the breakup though.
At least she paid you back right?
Trying to put a positive spin on it but

Yeah, unfortunately your poem brought it all back to me, lol but I'm a hard bastard, (emotionally) so it's ok. I'll post you one, lol. What charm do you want next? But isn't your bracelet heavy already? ;-)

Dude you are so right!!! It is kinda heavy. LOL
The only downfall of my
bracelet is that it gets hung up on my sweaters. LOL

Haha. Who made fun of your girly taste? I love it. ;) And that title pulled me in instantly. I love mythology, fantasy, and horror. The imagery is so incredible and unique and using jewelry as a prompt to create such fantastical images is just so incredible. I mean the first stanza alone draws such a vivid picture; the bat wings, a heart, the metallic skeletal frame and a red rose. You could do so much with that scene alone. And then all the colors and the flames and I love the description of Babylon night. That draws an entirely new scene for me of chaos and ancient times. I have always loved aquamarine and associating it with the sunset is beautiful. This is definitely a land of Sugar Skulls and Dragons. You should write a novel about this world you have created. ;)
And if you love the 'weird stuff', you must love me then. ;) lol

Hi Kristina:)
Ughh. I just changed my avatar. I bought a set of Pandora earrings
and posted a picture. Then I shared a convo with Ron about sugar skulls and got into tattoos.
His are sharks and my was the word Princess. LOL
Thanks for all of your snaps on this write. I had a vision
of a place where it's dark all the time and populated by sugar skull people and dragons. I looked up Auroras and they are more of a green blue color so I went with that. LOL
I love Tim Burton stuff. All of the out of the box fantastic fantasy
just motivates me creatively. And someone's obsession with dragons. LOL What a total dude right? hehehe
I totally love ya chica!!!
Thanks for the RL and comment sultry one:)

I did manage to see the ear rings before you changed avatars. ;) And Tim Burton is definitely great, love his stuff too. Have you ever read Piers Anthony Xanth novels? (speaking of fantasy lands, dragons, and such)

Definitely start with the first book - A Spell for Chameleon. The books build off each other so it's best to go in order. Don't worry there are only 45 books. lol

Great poem! It has just the right touch of the fantastic to it, with enough touch of the gothic about it to make it darkly appealing to those who are fond of such works, as I am. Great poetry! As usual, you write excellent works of art.

It was no trouble at all! It was great to have some free time to take a look at some poetry on here, and I must say yours is magnificent poetry to read, for certain. I have always been fond of dragons, myself! So, when I saw that in the title, this poem totally caught my eye. *Smiles* :)
