I'd like to join Shakespeare and Donne,
As well as the one, someone's son,
Who voted for himself, to be
Among poets whose poetry
You people vote upon as great.
Like Kipling, mentioned here to rate,
I too make up in quantity
What I may lack in quality.
I've set the Bible, all of it,
In rhymed verse and added a bit
In the Apocrypha as well
As Enoch, Jubilees, to tell
The truth some of Qur'an and some
Gospels outside the canon's hum,
And armed them all with commentaries
Poetical with blooms and berries.
So take a look, Beloved and I
Is very long at least to vie
With being great in size if not
Great in the beauty of its plot.
One vote for Thomas McElwain,
Who may not be great, but who's vain!
