Left Brain, Right Brain, Lower Brain

by Kalikiano Kalei — Read all 118 poems by Kalikiano Kalei

Applied male intelligence, as associated with interactive gender liaisons is an oxymoronic concept. This demonstrably irrefutable fact has nevertheless never been documented as an obstacle of significance to deter absolutely obnoxious amorous behavior on the part of those of the XY persuasion when confronted by those of the XX specificity.

Left Brain,
Right Brain,
Lower Brain.
 

 
 



It has been fairly well established

 

That the ancient, prehistoric reptile

Had two discrete neural control centers:

One in the cranium and the other

Situated in the lower hind-quarters.

Both were about the size of a pea.

 

The theory has recently been advanced

That modern man, despite the cursed blessing

Of his reasoning abilities, also has two brains

As well: A rather large and complicated,

Bilateral one, and a smaller but dominant one,

More about which we shall hear shortly.

 

The former appears to control man’s

Conscious behavior in nearly every aspect

<save one>, while the latter operates on

An autonomous, reactive basis—functionally

Best illustrated in mixed gender situations.

 

The lower ‘nether-brain’, as it is regarded,

Activates automatically in the presence of a fair

Member of the opposite sex, instantly rendering

All male bodily functions subject to its

Genetically programmed instructions.

 

I’d like to arrange a limited clinical

Demonstration of this for you, but don’t

Blame me if the experiment gets somewhat

Out of control. After all, the ‘nether-brain’ may

Well be in the genes, but it's in the jeans, as well…

You hilarity is so appealing but the underlying fact is truth and that can get scarey for someone NOT fearless..
