Jame Gumb likes your poem.
It puts the lotion on the skin.

I thought immediately of a dress makers model. I just love this one. Heaps. Can't even see any crits to mention. 'The back of my mothers cabinet' or something instead of:
a disturbed
anatomy teacher's
basement... would shift this from the disturbing sensation some have found. Unless of course you wanted this extra layer. ; ) and you ARE using a skeleton to 'measure and make on'. Then you are one disturbed little puppy eh! I love the shifts between the creation of a garment and the other hidden idea of creation and the model. That could be played with more. Nice overall I think. huni

Thanks Ilasir and Huni...I like your idea for the stanza about the teacher - to instead be something like mother...I wanted the disturbing to be more subtle, and I think I've made it too extreme here...I'm going to change that. Thanks!

Improved with the edit. You've now switched from Jame Gumb to Norman Bates.

Ahaha this was fun to read. I especially liked this:

This whole thing was quite surreal.
