In Jung’s model of the psyche
the Ego sits on top
of the unconscious
using the metaphor
of deep water.
Within the depths of the unconscious
lies the True Self, off screen.
The Ego fights to get out
of the model. The True Self
is a tired lover.
The ego is a balloon
bouncing on the ocean.
So many garbage barges
upturned and spilled
into the ocean’s body.
Hidden deep beneath the plastic
debris and derelict fishing gear
lives the Great Blue Whale
whose life and mating habits
are unknown to man.
You can barely hear her.
But her heart is as big as a car.
