If the head
took the knocks
and the blows
and the beatings
the heart has habitually
kept to itself, concussion
would not even need diagnosis.
It either would have killed us
off in the nest, or else
we'd survive
by evolving a skull
much more cushioned
and meshed with supporting
webs - which exists
to degrees, but nothing like what
we would need
if our brains
had our heart's kind
of guests.
