Clash of Truth and Beauty
Clash of Truth and Beauty
I find abhorrent this perversion
That the ancient Greeks had
For sexual engagement with animals
And that they entertained the belief
That offspring could be procreated
Through this act of bestiality.
It defies reality and escapes imagination
(Even in that time period).
How a culture so advanced could be clouded
With superstitious, inhuman ethics and morals
(If it weren’t so sad, it would be laughable),
And to accept this depiction as art
Taxes the brain for justification;
Not because of the act, but because of the culture.
I cannot see any beauty in this!
It’s the fact that it’s so despicable
And degrades the animals.
