Famous

This poem uses the word famous to describe a bond that two things have with each other, and is related to the role these things play in their respective natural order. Ultimately the speaker surmises how they do not want to be famous in the traditional meaning of the word, to be popular, but to be useful and carry out the purpose of life they were meant for. The poem has a distinct flow that moves from one idea or subject to another, and keeps the readers attention towards the final point. I also believe it makes use of about five beats per line over the course of the poem.
