Dear Dr Freud Poem by Dr. Ramesh Chandra Mukhopadhyaya

Dear Dr Freud

You wanted kill your father

To possess your mother

Your parents wanted to kill you

To possess each other

Dear Dr Freud

When a child is born

It has to face two hired ruffians

One is the child's mother

The child' s father is the other

You call them the agents of Superego

Used with the two goons

The grown up child

Learns to live as long as he can

In a world infested with snakes and tigers wild

Call it socialisation?
