Analysis of The Psychologist
They say I’m a psychologist.
But when I look in the mirror,
What do I see?
The man looking back at me
Seems to be many things,
But not a psychologist.
Sometimes I see a scientist.
Adept in research and
Excelling with findings.
I also see a philosopher.
Obtaining and utilizing knowledge,
And applying it to reality.
An entrepreneur is there for sure.
Creatively finding inventive solutions,
And having the ambitions to follow them.
Perhaps I’m like soup.
A mix of ingredients so uniquely strung,
Yet together, a perfect blend.
That’s me. The “psychologist.”
