0 deannaart 0 Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 a desk pen I’m the end that brings the end ~the tip of the pen writes "the end" at the end of stories I’m the one that hides.~ when you need a pen, you can never find one Shackles gird me waist to toe~ a desk pen is tethered to the desk by a chain Sealed in tower I. ~if a fountain pen it must sit in it's tower of ink Ever tasked to make amends, ~used to write sorry letters, or organize bank accounts Slowly here I die.~pens slowly die by running out of fluid My stricken foe you’ll never know~used to write an angry anonymous letter His death is met with sigh. ~it's always a bit frustrating when your pen dies or runs out of ink.

0 itachi-san 1 Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 hello. been a long time since I posted here. anyway great riddle. oddly enough I came up with another answer that I was sure was it, but when I checked the answer it was not. I probably prefer the intended answer, but here's what i thought: the wick of a candle I’m the end that brings the end - the tip of the candle that brings its own demise I’m the one that hides.- inside of course Shackles gird me waist to toe - the wax Sealed in tower I. - the candle as a whole Ever tasked to make amends, - candle fire can mend things, like the wax seal on an envelope or torn cloth. granted it's not used nearly as often as an eraser to mend Slowly here I die. - burns away My stricken foe you’ll never know - again, eraser fits better here I admit, but I would venture to say that the wick's foe is fire which we never know since it is inanimate His death is met with sigh. - fire is blown out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
