Id

 

primal influence

 species instinctive essence

  human perseverance

 

                  Ego 

                      

                      conscious awareness

                        schemes gleaned from finesse and stress

                         be preparedness

 

          Superego

                                                  

            an introspective

              spiritual perspective

               divine objective
