I just remembered "jugular". There must be a relationship with "gular". Did you think of this first, etaoin?

yeah, that's what I was getting at. since gular means throat, it seemed logical. not sure what the "ju" part is about, though. gular is from gula, and jugular from jugularis, so...

The Bactrian camel’s two humps
Started out as triangular bumps;
But no longer at best,
They slipped over her chest ~
She’s depressed her sex life has so slumped!
