Poetry Corner

In light of all this Paris Hilton media frenzie, I found a poem that I can sympathize with:

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!

-Emily Dickinson

I'm so glad I'm not famous! If I had a choice between fame and fortune, I'd pick fortune hands down!
