Medical Advice, Circa 1945

(2007)
Hesitate when excising a frontal lobe.
The procedure can result in disaster.
Utmost skill and confidence are needed to probe

without culpability, the patient dis-robed.
Practice on uneducated or unemployed.  A degreed Master?
Hesitate.  When excising a frontal lobe

you’re the personality-eugenicist supreme on the globe.
Institutionalize mistakes.  Maintain the aura of a pastor.
Utmost skill and confidence are needed to probe

the hostile brain.  Liken to a mass of microbes.
Remind prospectives that personality cannot be fixed with plaster.
Hesitate when excising.  The frontal lobe

is the seat of unbridled passion.  Like a strobe
oscillating light, meds fix the synapse, but needles alter faster.
Hesitate when excising a frontal lobe.
Utmost skill and confidence are needed to probe.
