Dilemma -- David Budbill

Guest poem submitted by Neville Clemens :
(Poem #1752) Dilemma
 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?
-- David Budbill
A friend of mine sent me this impish poem which she came across in  an
anthology titled "Good Poems", edited by Garrison Keillor - a collection of
American poems. For that, I am grateful to her.

Nothing to be said about this poem. Just read it, enjoy it and find yourself
grinning your sheepish, guilty grin :-).

The poet's website can be found at http://www.davidbudbill.com , with a link
to his biography.

Neville.

Puncak tertinggi di tanah jawa adalah puncak mahameru di gunung semeru dengan ketinggian 3676 meter diatas permukaan laut. Untuk menaklukkan puncak gunung semeru ini dibutuhkan keahlian mendaki gunung karena medan yang dilalui sangat berat dan menantang. Persiapan dan kelengkapan pendakian juga harus disiapkan sejak awal sebelum melakukan pendakian gunung semeru agar di tengah jalan tidak terjadi hal-hal yang tidak diinginkan.
