Sugar Death
Reflection
In a glass coffin, a skull lies serene,
Adorned with sprinkles, a candy sheen.
A symbol of life's fleeting, sweet design,
Where mortality meets the taste divine.
The colorful dots, like memories, remain,
As the skull's emptiness becomes a sweet refrain.
In this display, a paradox is told,
Of life's fragility and the beauty to behold.
The sprinkles dance upon its surface bright,
A whimsical touch in the face of endless night.
The teeth, a gleaming row, a macabre grin,
Invite the viewer to ponder what's within.
A commentary on our times, a reflection deep,
On how we sugarcoat the darkness we keep.
In this artwork, a message is conveyed,
To cherish life, for it's short and frayed.
The sugar-coated skull, a metaphor so fine,
Reminds us to live, to love, to make it all shine.
