0 plainglazed Posted December 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 wooohoo - and started off with a winner. see, that one was a cinch. the plural might better help you with the final answer. none of the seven one word answers to the couplets are necessarily foods. and would like to say that within each couplet, descriptions of different meanings of each answer are separated by commas and lines. thanks, plasmid. you got to know i have still been thinking on yours. have two thoughts to flesh out or just gonna get them off my chest. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what the hell was I thinking? Temporary solution: 1) Find wall 2) Locate own head. 3) Project own head at wall 4) Try not to miss 5) Repeat several times until feeling better.

0 plainglazed Posted January 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 Yes, Wilson's got it. Great to see you here among the living, my friend.

0 plainglazed Posted January 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Hey Wilson - not my answer above. have been working on a better clue with no success. this one is a little weak I fear. next puzzle is better I think (yes, one in the wings). recognition of key words as much as meaning of the verse might better steer to the answer intended. and now think your spoiler issue is not viewing them but in composing? have you tried writing out the tags? typed out like this: [spoiler="spoiler title here within quotes"]hidden content here[/spoiler]or you could cut and paste like you did above and delete all but the spoiler tags. cheers, mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question
plainglazed
These multi-celled hosts hold the key to life's rejections
Puts them down for all to see, but can they make corrections?
A sixth sense's what i got, gives a good impression
Hard pressed to make the cut, or cease all expression
They're commonly portrayed in these parts its safe to say
As all they're meant to be in performing the same way
Packs quite a wallop, when one really sings
Motions to give the shaft, certain body rings
Often just for grins, on the subject they shed light
And I for example give support outright
A one time dodge, yet on target I should stay
Flits back and forth, then stunningly falls prey
Preserves and conserves, though hardly puts on the brakes
Gets in a tight spot, then fixes, their mistakes
In exchange for the seven solved, I offer this great deal
For those that still remain, giving thanks for certain we'll
