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

I like how the rhyme scheme evolves from tight to loose
I'd also like to see a Jung-ian spin/sequel
love how the flow WITHIN the phrasing

nicely done
