Silence.

One by one we fall from heaven
down into the depths of past
And our world is ever upturned
so that yet some time we'll last

Sands in an hourglass.

Four of us are in your field
But our differences keep us at yield

First, a one that is no fool
Though he resembles a gardener's tool

Next, one difficult to split in two
And a girl once had one as big as her shoe

Then, to the mind, one's a lovely bonder
And truancy makes it grow fonder

Last, a stem connecting dots of three
Knowing all this, what are we?

Beetlejuice.

It cannot be seen, it cannot be felt,
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt,
Lies behind stars and under hills,
And empty holes it fills.
Comes first follows after,
Ends life kills laughter.

Kings and queens may cling to power
and the jester's got his call
But, as you may all discover,
the common one outranks them all

Riddles, now?

[fogginurworlds]

And why ever not?

There is a lack of more pressing matters to deal with, I suppose.

I find it passes the time until something important arrives.

I know a word of letters three. Add two, and fewer there will be.

Oh you have lovely riddles! Here's one of my favorites!
Five men go to church and it begins to rain.
The four that walked on got wet and the one that stayed still stayed dry, why?

Text /LATE

[fogginurworlds]

The one who stayed dry was in a coffin~

I do love that one. It's rather tricky.
