Splicing the past to the future.

You write all these happy tunes
Because they suit your voice better
(Much better than they suit me)

I'm stuck writing crappy poems
about growing bitter
With my over-simple rhyme schemes.

AB, CB, baby.
You see what I mean?
Maybe you'd be happy
With me,
It's a possibility.

But here's another night up late
Feeling fate pooling at my feet.
I try to hold it in my arms, and
It slips through like wet noodles.

And I fear you'd be too
Skeptical for this
Omphaloskeptic
Haruspex, anyway.
