   Immediately brought to mind are “Shall I compare thee to a Summer’s day?” and those comparison websites which only increase my indecisiveness.

   It’s a good quote… just not as good as others I’ve seen.

   That’s one of the reasons why I never compare my writing to other people’s writing.

     Good point! Trying to improve based on a writing tactic or way of expression is good, but the comparison is not.

       Also an idea for a future terrible poetry contest: Ode to Ben Franky, the inventor of daylight savings time. Ugh.

       And yes I mean Benjamin Franklin.

   How does Juliet compare
   to the warmth and light of the sun,
   to the enchantment of the full moon,
   to the blue beyond the clouds?

   Those wonders are far away, but
   with lights in blue eyes, with kisses
   Juliet is as close as
   God would have us be.

   But I wonder about
   Marie in the storm:
   she is prettier in comparison,
   more exciting like a lightning strike

   Marie thinks I’m like thunder,
   Juliet feels that I’m rain

   They both like the other John for now
   but they both write a lot of “Dear John” letters

   And the new John is much better than the old John.
   Shall I compare them or
   butter-up my betters
