Only At Rest Do They Touch the Ground
Two legs I have and this will confound, only at rest do they touch the ground. What am I?
A wheelbarrow.
A Final Screech
I saw a strange creature,
Long, hard, and straight,
Thrusting in a round, dark, opening,
Preparing to discharge its load of lives,
Puffing and squealing noises accompanied it,
Then a final screech as it slowed and stopped.
