Though secretive I am not
We'll have a ball, but -have a care!

Suspended, nigh unchanging
(In use, you cannot breathe in here)

I've been screwed over many times
My lips are sealed up tight

Because of me, many learn
And some laugh at the night

"There's no such thing as 'one, true way'; the only answers worth having are the ones you find for yourself; leave the world better than you found it. Love, freedom, and the chance to do some good -- they're the things worth living and dying for, and if you aren't willing to die for the things worth living for, you might as well turn in your membership in the human race." -- Diana Tregarde in Burning Water by Mercedes Lackey

That's too good an answer to not take it as an alternate. (That's what I get for changing the riddle at the last minute.)


I'll let it keep going for today at least in case anyone wants to take a crack at my intended answer.

The "original" version, if you want to give it a go:



By many names yet made by one
I keep what grows under the sun

Though secretive I am not
We'll have a ball, but -have a care!

Suspended, nigh unchanging
(In use, you cannot breathe in here)

I've been screwed over many times
My lips are sealed up tight

Because of me, many learn
And some laugh at the night
