I want to be
         famous
 so I can be
         humble
 about being
         famous.

 What good is my
         humility
 when I am
         stuck
 in this
         obscurity?

A friend of mine sent me this impish poem which she came across in an anthology titled “Good Poems”, edited by Garrison Keillor - a collection of American poems. For that, I am grateful to her.

Nothing to be said about this poem. Just read it, enjoy it and find yourself grinning your sheepish, guilty grin :-).

The poet’s website can be found at http://www.davidbudbill.com , with a link to his biography.
