Stop. Motion.

A claymation woman walks into a room. She looks carved from a ghost. Takes off her dress. It's lace. A spiderweb. She is wearing a slip. Petal pink. Thin as hammered metal. She throws herself on a bed. Also lace. The dress fades into it. She starts to cry. You can't see her face. Her tears: acrylic. Then she gets up. A claymation woman walks into a room. (invisible hand) Takes off her dress. (invisible hand) She is wearing a slip. (invisible hand) She throws herself on a bed. (invisible hand) She starts to cry. (invisible hand) Then she gets up. A claymation woman walks into a room. Takes off her dress. She is wearing a slip. She throws herself on a bed. She starts to cry. Then she gets up. This poem goes on forever.
