They were expensive, but I wondered why,

Because they used a different material for the torso.

Why?

Why would they change it?

The materials were two different colors.

The torso much darker than the limbs and head.

Craving to be touched by the light of the sun,

But it can’t because the manufacturers don’t want people to see

Under the cheaply made clothes.

Maybe it’s real skin.

Maybe there’s this kind of torso in us all,

Wanting to be shown.

Since it isn’t normal though, we must keep it hidden.

Maybe it’s real skin.

Also, why did every single one have buck teeth?

The two large squares seemed to be the only two teeth they had.

If that is true, then they must be the age of a small child.

Wait….

They had hair too.

Big, healthy heads of hair that were silk to the touch.

That blew in the wind, like ours do.

It smelt like shampoo. Human shampoo.

Who, or WHAT, are you?
