I'm sorry I was late.
I was on my way
when I felt a plot
thickening in my arm.
I have a fear of heights.
Luckily the Earth
is on the second floor
of the universe.
-- Jeffrey McDaniel, (excerpt) 'Compulsively Allergic to the Truth', from The Endarkenment, via poets.org Poem-A-Day

I stopped at the same lines... "a plot thickening in my arm".
Fabulous.

Wonder if you can take rat poison to cure that?
