Yes, I think I am a better poet than Whitman or William Carlos Williams. Maybe as good as Richard Wilbur but less good than Robert Frost, Wallace Stevens and the great Emily. Stevens, to my taste, is the greatest poet who wrote in English in the Twentieth Century. But hey, it's the Twenty-first century now! Sam and I are stepping out. And Annie. Who could forget Annie.
