To Be Somebody Poem by RIC BASTASA

To Be Somebody



it is nice to be somebody
like that great man

but it is too sad
too harsh and annihilating
to lose myself just to be somebody

now i like being nobody
it is me and there is no other

i can sit
and just be alone gazing at all of them
panicking

to be that great somebody.
i smile. i am cool. i am myself

and you still love me.
