A sizzling summer sun bakes bodies lying on the beach,
Teasing tans from within white, winter-weary dermis,
Calling upon malingering melatonin to meet deepening demands,
As the bodies turn over in timed intervals,
Like so many greasy, green tomatoes on a griddle,
Coated in coconut oil, they cook,
Turning, and often burning,
For it is difficult to determine when dermis is done.

A dermis is done when it's in de-sun all day delicate to de-touch...
