As a poet, I never claimed to be any good

As a poet, I never claimed to be any good. If you think I did, you've misunderstood. I only said that between me and Shakespeare, there's only one winner-take-all there. And I left it up to you to guess who.

I love the playful humility in your poem, Marinus! The way you juxtapose yourself with Shakespeare is clever and leaves a fun, open-ended twist for the reader to ponder. Your rhyme scheme flows naturally, adding a lighthearted charm to the piece. Great work
