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
Gah! I got tricked into reading a (great) poem!
I’m a big fan of this one (though I don’t think it’s really Emily).

It’s ok. I felt the same way when Pride and Prejudice and Zombies tricked me into reading Pride and Prejudice.
Hmph.

LOL! Did you read it? I’ve been wondering how they pulled that one off and if it was worth reading.

I did read it, and mostly enjoyed it.
It was very much Pride and Prejudice, with not near enough Zombies.
Darcy should have been bitten.
Meh.

I’ll have to give it a read, I haven’t read Pride and Prejudice since I was a teen anyhow.

I adore Miss Emily. I have a photograph of her tombstone. Yes, I am that weird! Nobodies must stick together.

If I declare that I’m a nobody does that automatically make me somebody? No fair……
