I'm nobody! Who are you?/
Are you nobody, too?/

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!

I guess some think that any poetry relevance would be irrelevant in HN. To those I would reply:
It is difficult
to get the news from poems
yet men die miserably every day
for lack
of what is found there.
