Everyone Is Doing This Same Thing
Right now everyone in the world, no matter where they are, is doing the exactly same thing. What is it?
Getting older. Sad but true, and there’s nothing anyone can do to stop it. If you thought of breathing, it’s not entirely accurate because not everyone takes a breath at the same time. Living is an arguably suitable alternate answer as well.
Alive Without Breath
Alive without breath,
As cold as death,
Clad in mail never clinking,
Never thirsty, ever drinking
A fish.
What Does Man Love More Than Life?
What does man love more than life
Fear more than death or mortal strife
What the poor have, the rich require,
and what contented men desire,
What the miser spends and the spendthrift saves
And all men carry to their graves?
Nothing. This one is similar to Greater than God, but different enough to include it here.
Split Itself
What can split itself
before splitting something else?
Lightning. It looks like it’s splitting apart in the sky, and trees are split in half when struck by lightning.
