You're prettier with a membrane, darling.

It's our skin
That keeps us in,
Without it we'd be sore.

We would dry
And quickly die.
Now that would be a bore.

brilliant title! loved the poem too, obviously

Less is often more, as in this case. Made me smile, and I too admire the title which works well as an integral part of the poem itself.

Love the playful simplicity.
