The Greatest Poet

I guess I'm the greatest poet who ever lived;
The guru of words and a master of tempo
Who knows no rival at any time perceived
To be equal or better than he.

I reckon Wendell was good and Shakespeare great
As well as Wordsworth and Poe and Longfellow and all,
But none of them managed my overcomimg of fate
To pen verse as good as mine.
