Since way back in eighteen-ninetyone,
the concept called frenemy
has awaited your coming to put it on,
like armor, against your foe's poetry.

This was inspired by the tacit rivalry between William Carlos Williams and T. S Eliot. Williams' resentment of Eliot's literary success, especially the influence of his poem, The Waste Land, seemed---at least to me---to be an obsession.
