I move steel beasts with a press, or a twist if they're on two legs. My opposite has the power to halt them both with a wire. Careful pushing me, it gets dangerous if I'm against the wall. I move needles into the red, so pay attention ahead.

You measure my life in hours and I serve you by expiring. I’m quick when I’m thin and slow when I’m fat. The wind is my enemy.

This bow cannot fire arrows, yet it still bends. This bow cannot be tied, yet it still mends. This bow cannot rest in the sky or in hair, but it lives close to your heart. And though it cannot make an instrument sing, it can make a laugh start.

I show you what you want to see, but I hold no secrets. I never lie, yet I reveal only what’s in front of me. In light, I am your guide, but in darkness, I fade away.

In the light, I give no fright. In the dark, I leave a mark. Tread with care, if you dare. But beware, as I don't care. Your foot has nothing to gain, as I will bring you great pain.
