Dammit Quincy, now you have ME attempting these things! I've made rather free with the half rhymes. Here it is anyway.
SEANCE
Tinkering in the dark, Houdini,
they try your death’s door. Is it shut?
Shoelaces could come in handy
(tinkerings in the dark, Houdini)
or a small, regurgitated key.
Then someone punched you in the gut.
Still tinkering at the dark. Houdini,
your final death’s door, is it? Shut!
