instinct takes practice

Instinct takes practice.
Cats do it. Birds
- to act without thinking,
it always occurs. In us,
we call habit a chain
and a cage. But it's just
practiced instinct,
'til thoughts disengage. In case
we have something unsettled
to think, we don't miss
a motion of what we go
through by instinct
well-practiced. We run
every link. The chain
keeps us free to work out
other kink.
