Sex And Violence

John Prophet

Sex And Violence 

  Why?

Why so much?

It’s everywhere.

Why?

Our literature.

Our movies.

Our music.

Our art.

Everything.

Human civilization,

tightly woven  

with

sex and violence.

Wars are fought,

careers destroyed,

because of

sex and violence.

Instincts run deep.

Humanity

held ransom 

by

sex and violence.

Common sense

logic

cannot 

withstand!

Human passions 

heated 

crush logic

destroy  thoughtfulness.

Why?

Animals.

We are  animals.

We have 

instincts,

like all the rest,

genetically programmed.

Procreation!

Self preservation!

Etched

into our

very being.

Cannot ignore.

Impossible to Ignore.

The strongest

in all  animals.

Humans no different.

How

will it change 

when the machines  

arrive?

What would 

machine civilization

look like when

instincts 

are  no more?

Time will tell!

They  are coming.
