"I am curious! Are you?" An Interpretation...

I have made a poem that reflects on the famous poem 'I'm Nobody! Who are you?' by Emily Dickinson into a completely different topic but still does follow the structure and idea: The poem by Emily Dickinson: I’m Nobody! Who are you? I'm Nobody! Who are you? Are you - Nobody - too? Then there's a pair of us! Don’t tell! they'd advertise - you know! How dreary - to be - Somebody! How public - like a Frog - To tell one's name - the livelong June - To an admiring Bog! My interpretation of the above: I am curious! Are you? I am Curious! Are you? Are you Curious too? A pair of us, there is! Dare tell a lad – and he’ll make an ad! How astounding – being – Curious. How open – like a monkey’s cries – To ask a question – until answered – To the Curious!
