Greater Than God
It is greater than God and more evil than the devil. The poor have it, the rich need it and if you eat it you’ll die. What is it?

Wench and Warrior
Round and round and round it goes,
The source but not the birth of clothes,
Wench and warrior, child and crone,
Without it dressed near barer bone.
A spinning wheel. It goes around in circles and makes the thread that is used in clothing and anyone who isn’t wearing clothes would be barer boned.
All Like Me Would Now Retire
I work hard most every day,
Not much time to dance and play,
If I could reach what I desire,
All like me would now retire.
What am I?
A doctor. They work hard to eradicate illness, but if they ever succeeded, they would no longer be needed. Hey, that even rhymed!
