self-explanatory; but right after being asked the question, in line two the poem says “Are you-Nobody-too”? The dashes after you and nobody can be used as a pause to make it seem like she is almost hesitant to ask us or that she already assumes that the person is a nobody and she thinks that it is too good to be true so she keeps pausing to make the no that she might get a little bit better.
