That is NOT the entire poem!
Full text from my personal copy of 1977's Love is a Dog From (with spacing intact) :
don't undress my love
you might find a mannequin;
don't undress the mannequin
you might find
my love.
she's long ago
forgotten me.
she's trying on a new
hat
and looks more the
coquette
than ever.
she is a
child
and a mannequin
and
death.
I can't hate
that.
she didn't do
anything
unusual.
I only wanted her
to.
