I'm a Nobody

My dear friend, Human Being has asked fellow bloggers to write their own version of this Emily Dickenson's poem. I'll join you HB. Hugs and wfs to you.


Here's the original:


I'm Nobody


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 day

To an admiring bog!


Here's my version:


I'm a Maze


I'm a maze! Who are you?

Are you a maze(d), too?

Then there's a mass of us - don't tell!

They'd surprise you, you know.


How confusing to be somebody!

How puzzling, like a puzzle.

To (full)fil your wonder the livelong day

To an amazing b(l)og.
