Alter Ego (Star Trek Nemesis Summary)

In Star Trek Nemesis he grimaces,
When he sees his clone,
Danger on the premises,
Enemies hell bent to destroy my home,
In the prequel and the sequel,
My adversaries and I weren’t equals,
But it seems that I've met my match,
My past is about to kick my a$$,
But my advantage is my uniqueness,
And time is his weakness,
Ambitious but friendless,
Love trumps fear in every instance,
Absolute power conquers like a prison sentence,
A lifetime breakdown like water and erosion,
You initiated self-destruction, but there was no explosion,
Heated moment tactics full of holes like a donut,
I'll charge ahead at ramming speed before you back me in a corner,
Faced with certain annihilation,
I find myself pacing,
On the damaged bridge of the Enterprise,
Battling my former self for survival, how shall I rise?
Clever persuasion won't work on this occasion, perhaps a disguise, 
Beam over with the beta version of Data and attack with the element of surprise, 
Attacks provoked under the cowardliness of a cloak, 
Defenses down, away team deployed, time for a 16th century quote, 
Shakespeare wrote, "All the world's a stage", 
We're all actors, in the universe so whose writing this plot?
In the end, we're alive but we didn't win, because we lost our robot (Android).
