When a big dog attacks – v2

I have seen them, losing control
their response engrained
the stimuli perhaps hidden
from my sight, subtle
but instant, visceral, reacting
as when a big dog attacks
seeing the manifestation
body language, reason
changed in an instant
the programmed reactions
deep within their brains
something instinctive
primal, primitive
learned long before
when the big dog attacks
the same in the court
in settlement, resolution
on cue devolving,
by a word, an action,
a mere twitch of a micro-muscle
back into survival, not thinking
losing perspective, losing control
losing their case
