Looming overhead,
a shadow abloom
from a stalk, yet dead,
gloom against the gloom.

Another Riddle
Like a monotonous drum machine
hidden within a latchless chest,
beating along nearby, yet unseen,
restless until your final rest.
Brainteaser
A bio-weapon shaped like a mushroom cloud,
from sphere to sphere its influence expands,
proliferating widely, a few allowed
into its hidden bunker, their keen hands
meaning to defuse the damaged, faulty wires
with skills of scalpel scarce in the wide world,
fixing the electric triggers and misfires
from which all human madness is unfurled.
Another Riddle
An electric eel coil,
a bubble that does not boil,
a bulb without the soil,
for midnight toil without the oil.
