A Struggle as Old as Time Itself
There are many classic battles, of course, conflicts that define the combatants even as those foes fight and die. Pirates versus ninjas, Ford versus Chevy, alligators versus gars – would these entities even know how to carry on without their adversaries?
But of course, there is one struggle that rises above all of these, and it is only fortunate that the contenders gave discovered a way to play out their conflict without tearing each other limb from limb, and possibly harming innocent bystanders.
Yes, this is probably best, all things considered.
Also, it is nice that the poets managed to win something, since it will likely be their last experience with that.
