Bear Ponding

Pair bonding
Different from bear ponding
Goes back to the cave
Probably because eyes in the backs of heads could never be invented
Nor introduced in evolution
Eyes, meet nerves
Nerves, meet skull
Skull, make way for orbs
Still having nothing to do with bear ponding

While appreciative of Hammurabi
And all his efforts
It looks like it's mostly instinctual anyway
Without a group consensus
Or phallus leader
Not speaking of Hammurabi who was more of a fearless leader
The individual rarely wins out
The benefit to humanity comes
When all else fails
Even the traveling elixir salesman
Gets run out of town
Every once in a while
Pointed out by a leerless feeder

So the dirty tramping
And the cave sweet cave
Never lasts very long
Unless you have many eyes
Or an umbrella for a head
Two evolutionary fixes
That seem more like nuisances
When looking down from space
But a clever fix
For when a fever clicks
