"I’m Nobody! Who are you?" This poem opens with a literally impossible declaration—that the speaker is “Nobody.” This nobody-ness‚ however‚ quickly comes to mean that she is outside of the public sphere; perhaps‚ here Dickinson is touching on her own failure to become a published poet‚ and thus the fact that to most of society‚ she is “Nobody.” The speaker does not seem bitter about this—instead she asks the reader‚ playfully‚ “Who are you?‚” and offers us a chance to be in cahoots with her (“Are
