Animal
world.
Instincts
run
amok.
Procreation.
Self preservation,
top two.
*** and
violence
ruling
the roost.
Programed
deep in
soul.
Millions
of years
in the
making.
Civilization
contorted
designed
around.
Society
strug­gles
to contain.
Human
nature
held
hostage.
Directed.
Interacting
as programming
dictate’s.
Humanity
blissfully
unaware.
Thinking
they­β€™re in
control.
Literature.
Music.
Theater
all subject
to the
pull.
Love and
hate!
Lives ruined.
Careers,
relationships
destroyed.
Wars fought,
millions die.
All due
to the
inexorable
push of
programming.
Procreation,
self preservation
will no be
denied.
