The Question of a Budding Psychologist

November 10, 2013

Mister tinker, master of hammers

and pins, can

you tell me how to fix a man?

 

Show me how to open

his locks,

rip open his machinery

find out what makes him tick-tock

 

Unfasten his screws

unwind the circuits

take out id, egos super and human

Make him again, perfect.

 

Mister tinker,

tell me how

fix a man.

No matter my effort,

I cannot understand.
