Dickinson Shout Out: #3
I’m Nobody! Who are you?
Are you – Nobody – too?
Then there’s a pair of us!
Don’t tell! they’d advertise – you know!
How dreary – to be – Somebody!
How public – like a Frog –
To tell one’s name – the livelong June –
To an admiring Bog!
I’m Somebody! Who r u?
R u – Somebody – 2?
Then there’s a few of us!
Don’t tweet! they’d follow – you know!
How tedious – to be – Everybody!
How free-for-all – like a Blog –
To text one’s game – all after Noon –
To emoticon Applause!
