As poet, I never said I was any good

As poet, I never said I was 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.

kjeld vk Date: 4/30/2025 11:02:00 AM 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
