Picking At Freudian Projection/Picking Out Every Number in a Lineup

This one's family, down to his livestock, are most delightful creatures all,
But he wants to monopolize me, and he drives me up a wall.
This one's as interesting a person as I've in my whole life met;
He is inviting and engaging, understated, kind, and yet
I dread possibilities of moments in which I might see his face.
Am I projecting onto people unconscious thoughts about the place?
'Cause this one? Him I ought to like, or feel guilty if I don't.
This one I really want to like, and befriend, too, but I won't.
This one I really do like–even as he's bugging me.
It seems I'm programmed with some bug up top, above where I can see.
