“I’m Nobody”
by  Emily Dickinson

I’m Nobody! Who are you?
Are you–Nobody–too?
Then there’s a pair of us!
Don’t tell! they’d banish us–you know!

How dreary–to be–Somebody!
How public–like a Frog–
To tell your name–the livelong June–
To an admiring Bog!

IN CHAT – PUBLIC!!!!!

  1. What do you think she means by Nobody?
  2. Why would “they” banish the nobodies?
  3. What does the “admiring Bog” stand for? (A bog is a swampy area where frogs and such would live.)
  4. Does the narrator like being a nobody? How can you tell? Use a line from the poem to back up what you say.
  5. How would you feel about being famous?

Fame is a bee
It has a song–
It has a sting–
Ah, too, it has a wing.

IN CHAT PUBLIC: What do the song, the sting, and the wing represent about Fame?
