Jungian Slip

I suppose we have all heard of the Freudian slip, where words just escape willy nilly to reveal something of the hidden most Id-like conception.

But what of the Jungian Slip, any ideas for a definition? Any pyschologists out there?

Here's my definition:

A Jungian Slip: definition

Amid a London particular
In search of the archetypes,
A dream conscious state recalls
Collective associations of a misplaced ritual.
Mist and darkness out of place;
The emergent enigma of forgotten relations
Where light heralds welcome on the foggy playground
In pursuit of the punishing figure of Freud. Abandoned
In favour of the lamp-lit aura of swing-play.
Childlike interactions that smack back
Recall the tirade, the trials of an intellectual cover-up.
Very fetching, a march to corporeal ensues,
Issues a reprimand to those dislocations,
Those moments when… we don’t let slip
Into the depths of common sense. I deny the prevalence
To put myself forward as abusive and bad.

Sorry but I can't write dictionary defs only poetic ones.
