Ego and Id

Posted on 16/02/2015 by Alka

Let Me Be Me

me and my clone
will have a good time

I’ll watch movies
she’ll wash the dishes

me fashion and grooming
she mopping and brooming

while I read shopping tags
she’ll carry my shopping bags

while I write poems
she pays the bills

she will be sick
but me fit and fine

one day she will die
forever I’ll survive

If that sounds mean
then let me be me

already have Ego and Id
Jekyll and Hyde in me

“If you could clone yourself, how would you split up your responsibilities?”

  Thanks for your comments!! If I want my clone to be an actual task-doer for me, then I should make her/it do some intellectual work besides everyday home tasks I mentioned. But here I preferred to keep the brainy work for myself.
