We Have a Brain in our Bum

We Have a Brain in our Bum

Preamble

Reported in our paper

 

Scientists have recently discovered

A second brain resides in our bum

Published in Journal Neurosci

This brain in our bum makes it hum

 

The colon contains many neurons

Millions of hard-working nerves

Firing in synchronous behaviour

Pushing contents down colon's curve

 

Why do they call it a second brain? -

Because it can act all alone

Requiring no external input

But doing it all on it's own

 

This research is hoped to be used for

Understanding of colon disease

To help those with chronic constipation

Giving sufferers some form of release

I write what and how I want to. I hold my keys. If others want to follow me and like my style fine. If not. Still fine. Each to his own.

Don, you have put together something of interest - if you can rise above the temptations of a quick comedy jerk off as in this poem I think you have widened your scope - never mind the flippant comments; I am trying to be serious!

Dunno about brain Don but people often talk out of their arse. (Not you of course!)

Anya is also now proud of her bum -when she realised this was a serious scientific report.

Brian's cycling around the far-flung isle still, looking for Gina

Maybe he's too distracted to go looking for his bum and it's neuron hum. Need to give him a nudge this direction. Can't have him getting waylaid by Tina's sister. Gosh, he'd end up a mental wreck
