Fair to middlin' of nowhere

I have noticed a tendency
for the male of our species
to oft times regress to a more
primal behavior

When standing by a door
instincts take over
They are again the protector
blocking entry
to their lair

To their position modern day
they have become oblivious
a’la standing in the way

They will continue to talk
or whatever it is
they abide
when you
slip, nudge, push
them aside

As if held
with invisible hinges
they move back into place
filling the gap
with their girth

All is well
they are full
of good wishes
and mirth
as they stand
more oft than not
between a woman
her kitchen and dishes

Yes, and we are overwhelmingly chastised.
