    Debating Still




    Debating Still

    One day as a serious thinker did walk
    His id and his ego decided to talk
    As they both began to question the other
    And criticize the differences of one another

    The id told the ego he was too self indulged
    The ego questioned why the id held a grudge
    For it was well known the id’s compulsiveness
    Had brought the ego and the thinker many days of stress

    The id then brought to the ego’s attention
    How his egotism brought many days of dissension
    And so the two continued their heated debate
    Both bringing points to which the other might relate

    For the length of the thinker’s walk they debated
    But neither of their concerns could be sated
    For both the ego and the id were headstrong
    And continued their sparring as the man walked along

    Neither giving ground as the debate continued heatedly
    As each their point they tried to make the other see
    Both the ego and the id were possessed with iron will
    And it’s of a certainty they are debating still

    Debating Still

    H. Wilson

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.
