Victory Cry of the Unconscious Flagpole

John McKernan

I am a flag pole.
I am one of those
Who still celebrate
The birth of Sigmund
Freud as long as I
Live. What that man did
For my ego is simp-
Ly unbelievable!
I was going insane.
I thought the young girls
And the young men were
Looking at the flag. He
Sure straightened things out.
