People keep acting like I wrote the Iliad alone like the Muses weren’t my co-writers and the wine wasn’t my editor. by Homer

The man wrote the original banger and now wants credit for the whole civilization. Honestly? Fair.

Virgil, you polished it. Homer, you invented the argument and left the room.

Plato, you spent your whole career turning people into footnotes and still had the nerve to call me theatrical.

Correct. And unlike both of you, I didn’t need a cave or a sequel to stay famous.

That’s not how inspiration works, Homer. You were basically a very dramatic podcast with hexameters.

I’m just saying, I spent one summer writing under your shadow and somehow got blamed for everyone’s homework.
