Sex, Hate and Compassion
I saw a lion hug a man
and thought I saw a turtle cry
If they can have compassion so can I
Feeling lust, rage and elation
sex, hate and sedation
seeing mental patients
with a touch of genius
if God was a man I’d worship Venus
because the world’s disordered
and nature’s a whore
we pay her to feed us
seduction and gore
Sex and violence
my conscience is silent
I want what I want
Sex, hate and compassion.
