Oedipus Obsession
Husband and wife were meant to be intertwined
A love so deep that transcends space and time
The bundle of joy was soon to strive
Just a few more seconds until she arrives
As the years progressed the little girl interjected
Mommy and Daddy needed a little time alone so she got rejected
Inner turmoil and jealousy filled her heart
The biggest impediment was her Mother not the dog’s bark
Daddy would console her when skies were gray
While Mommy went to church as she sit and pray
Sigmund Freud had a theory that would be highly critiqued
Let’s take the time to analyze the girl’s mystique
Sexual desires developed for a man she knew all her life
The hatred for a woman that was known as his wife
Ultimately the maturation process was delayed
Lesbianism was embodied and now is on full display
Difficult to see at first similar to a diamond in the rough
Or oysters that encapsulate pearls
And to think it all stemmed from an innocent little girl
