0 Guest Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 a laser a laser pointer All good guesses, but no. I'm afraid that one-stanza Haiku's are inefficient for riddles. Maybe a couple more will help: I'm yours to command I'll go as far as you like And I come two-toned I live on the edge A tall fortification Hint?

0 Guest Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 Still stuck? Instead of giving a new Haiku with which to confuse you, let me restate some of the previous lines to pay special attention to: Not a veteran Aim straight As far as you like And actually, on second thought, here is a new Haiku: Patriarch is toast Should he walk into my path But I fear his wife Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 how about...tower? In the correct context, your answer is right. No one has gotten that context yet. I'll write one more before I just spill it. These Haikus are more ambiguous than I would have hoped.

Horse for a neighbor My battlefield's 8 by 8 No diagonal Of course a rook (although, yes, the "tower" answer would probably count...as well as a possible "castle" since some people do call them that...), nice haiku riddle!
