Speaking to my "id" {page two}

    “SELF EXAMINATION”


     (speaking to my “id”)


           {page two}


 


Bargain of god, -


             such creatures are holy.


What’s happened to this specimen –?


              is it fictional solely?


Pray, what is the formula –


             what is the mixture?


Used in forming this titan –


              a saintly fixture.


Guardian of truth –


               purveyor of right.


August of stature –


               solid of might.


Big of heart, to the point of logic –


               and slow to anger.


Redundant in worth –


               while praise concise.


The day of fast friendship –


                has passed o’er the scene.


Replaced by a blend ship –


                jealousy and spite.


“Glory for me” – with a salty excursion,


                to hell and back – a pitiful sight...


 


                                                                (ed)

Insightful. The hell and heaven trip is a good one if you survive it! Great write.

Interesting write...although I don't understand much of this; but I figure it must be an interesting topic.
