5 upon the floor
They all serve 1:

A riddle by the sun

Knocked Before Shot

Khalid Mukhtar · August 17, 2016 ·

Knocked before shot.
The silent must go
If a clue’s to be got.

Strong is my spine

Khalid Mukhtar · August 8, 2016 ·

Strong is my spine, so hold me
That I may relate all that’s told me
Through leaves often red,
And though I be dead
I’m yours till you’ve given or sold me.

Thursday Riddle (December 5, 2014)

Khalid Mukhtar · December 5, 2014 ·

My seed is desire and poison, my fruit,
And when my desire begins to take root,
It grows like a fire that makes it’s way higher
To burn all in sight of the eye of desire.

Thursday Riddle (November 20, 2014)

Khalid Mukhtar · November 21, 2014 ·

A snout of length and many uses;

A chest without a heart can’t love;

A stalk of strength; the winner chooses
A word for each of the above.

Thursday Riddle (November 13, 2014)

Khalid Mukhtar · November 13, 2014 ·

Survives to be heard even as executed
To echo the voice of a soul that is muted.

Thursday Riddle (November 6, 2014)

Khalid Mukhtar · November 6, 2014 ·

Old Ebenezer can be quite distressing:
You take off his cloak, his coat and his shirts
And offer a tear to find it depressing
That Eb is more hidden with every undressing.

Thursday Riddle (October 30, 2014)

Khalid Mukhtar · November 1, 2014 ·

I hope you don’t mark me forgetful a man
For all of this tardiness is in my plan.
Four score and two thousand eight hundred is what
You must now resolve if you can.

Thursday Riddle (October 23, 2014)

Khalid Mukhtar · October 24, 2014 ·

Upon which a runner may rest
To honor so many a guest.

Thursday Riddle (October 16, 2014)

Khalid Mukhtar · October 17, 2014 ·

Stands in silence, shoots and leaves.
