Do you ever test your humility? How deep are its roots? How wide are its walls? This poem got me thinking about the authenticity of my humility:
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?
-“Dilemma” by David Budbill, cited in Good Poems by Garrison Keillor
