With piercing force it doles out fate,
Over bloodless victims proclaiming its might,

What Looks Like Food
What looks like food, tastes like food, smells like food, sounds like food when you cook it, is grown in dirt like food, fills up your stomach like food, but is not food?
A poisonous mushroom. Since some types of mushrooms are edible, it can be very hard to distinguish between a safe mushroom and one that will kill you. Food is defined as a substance consumed to provide nutrition, therefore a poisonous mushroom that kills you doesn’t qualify as food, even though it shares all of the traits of a regular mushroom.
Other valid answers include anything that’s edible, resembles food, but is poisonous.
It Is Hate
It is hate and has hate in it, but it isn’t hate.
Hatred.
By Sef Daystrom
Rooms One Score and Six
This house holds rooms, one score and six,
That shelter a vast mob.
It lets lions lie down with the lambs,
Yet makes both shun the slob.
None now will nestle with nicks and nates,
While reams room near the rear.
Though you and I have separate rooms
Both our bottles brim with beer.
The king and queen can never mate
(Though hands and hearts hobnob)
Because their rooms are separate
If this jail does its job.
What house is this that rules thus
Forcing faith to fend with fear?
The answer to this riddle lies
With dead and dying here.
A dictionary.
I Climb Higher When Hot
I climb higher when hot,
But beware my rage,
I’ll kill with a breath,
If I can escape my cage.
Mercury. It rises when encased in a thermometer when it’s hot and mercury poisoning results from inhaling mercury.
