Sex

Arthur Guiterman (1871-1943)

Sex

              Amœbas at the start

                Were not complex;

              They tore themselves apart

                And started Sex.

              And Sex has ruled the earth

                From then till this,

              Producing woe and mirth

                And pain and bliss.

              Through Sex the seedling wakes

              To cleave the ground;

            Tis really Sex that makes

              The world go ’round.

            It sublimates the mind

              With noble themes,

            Or sends it unrefined,

              Suggestive dreams.

            ‘Tis Sex that rules the lives

              Of clods and kings;

            It gives us books and wives

            20  And other things —

            Ambition, love, and strife

              And all the ills

            And ecstasies of life —

              And Freuds and Brills.
