THE BOOK OF THE VIP
ZIGGIE
What the unconscious wants
Chapter 5
For example, the dego might think that life was about going to work,
2And eating and sleeping regularly,
3And going out on dates every once in a while,
4And maybe getting married eventually,
5And having a few children,
6And a nice old age,
7But the eego was dead wrong about all that.
8fActually, life was about a bunch of deep dark drives buried in the gunconscious,
9Which were generally kept just barely under control by the hsuperego,
10Meaning the way you thought you were supposed to act,
11While the iego went on its jmerry way,
12Hardly aware of anything,
13Until Ziggie got it on the couch.
