The page of my enemy has been deleted
After Clive James' The Book of my Enemy Has Been Remaindered


 * The page of my enemy has been deleted
 * And I am pleased.
 * What good his FA stars, his GA blobs, his D.Y.K.s,
 * The immoderate praise of his fans?
 * The page of my enemy has been deleted.


 * All its incoming links have been deleted
 * Like so much linkspam,
 * Lost in the page's history
 * with the school-boy vandalism
 * and the personal attacks.


 * All the keep !votes by anons who liked it,
 * All the comments by his friends
 * observing that other things exist,
 * The praise of his claque,
 * They got him nothing.


 * The snowball-closed deletion review,
 * His bitter thread on ani,
 * His friends' appeal to Jimbo,
 * His angry condemnation of the project,
 * All in vain.


 * Soon now a page of mine will be deleted,
 * or redirected to some unrelated topic,
 * But I won't mind so much
 * Because I have a life beyond the wiki,
 * And because the page of my enemy has been deleted.
