Quiescence Pervades Medulla Oblongata
Outward brain stem hummock analogously,
(asper bound minuscule magnum opus)
figuratively paginated with drowned
atavistic animal instincts
roar back to life upon found
perceived or real threat adrenaline
splashes cerebral hemispheres
triggering body electric to become
alert as a bloodhound
countless millenniums ago
the flight or fight reaction apropos
when savage beasts threatened tribe
with bro whizzing primitive creatures
some forced tweet crow
wing, thence railing, swooping, trouncing
dough main housing small cluster of emo
ting primates gabbling in primal
grunts and groans witnessing ruminants
scurrying to and fro survival
of the fittest danger field thus
by dint of inherent smarts didst grow
outwitting wily coyote, or other lion eyes, hoe
ping automatic saving grace tactics recalled,
when looming predator doth woof and warp
emergency arises, when debacle fore stalled
for time against getting mauled whereby
each subsequent ruse out foxing
fierce-some, hungry non a mew
zing potential breakfast, lunch,
or dinner as the sorry loo
sir aye sic newton, sans
this non nonsense game of "Life",
which thru countless millenniums strategies grew
layered upon left and right cerebral hemispheres few
till hetty became diminished
as proper contra bands of bipedal hominids drew
upon accumulated storied history
learned from Bubba Zayda's
many times over motley (foolish) crew
squirreling modus operandi wove
(traversing eons) corpus collosum hair
(more so nerve fiber weave
a microscopic whirled wide web linkedin
left and right fist size gray matter
coated with transparent integument
custom made swiftly tailored sleeve
ah...proving grounds, when forebears
of Homo Sapiens touch and go hashtagged
on permanent leave on par
with imagining dragons easy to believe.
