The Dead Bring Forth the Living

Short and tall,

Soldiers Line Up Spaced With Pride
Soldiers line up, spaced with pride,
Two long rows lined side by side,
One sole unit can decide,
If the rows will unite or divide.

A zipper.
Up and Down and Round About
I’m up and down and round about,
yet all the world can’t find me out.
Though thousands have employed their leisure,
they never yet could find my measure.
I’m found in almost every garden,
In a compass or a farden.
There’s neither chariot coach nor mill
may move one inch except I will.
What am I?
A circle.
