ENIGMA #26
An explorer that has seen it all. A genius that knows where to go. In your pocket or on your wall, Shows the world from the eye of the crow.

Resolution
No need to wait till New Year’s Eve to set resolutions.
No need to wait for the world to be on your side
to take a step towards being a better person.
Or waiting for Michael Jackson to be reborn and moonwalking again.
There is a moment when the guidance comes.
It comes from nowhere, sounds mysterious as it is.
Before it goes and leaves cause it flies by like Superman.
Just take it, put it in a jar and close it secure.
And then, when you’re feeling unsure
you can peer at it through the transparent glass.
But if you’re sure and certain,
just open the jar and put it into your heart.

A pair of knives, blunt like an old pencil. But together they become a useful utensil. They open their jaws and bite what comes forth, your dominant hand will determine their worth.
Previous answer: a chess set.

A war among two opposing nations, a feud of kings, in a special location. The wittier one will beseige the other. His grace surrenders, let’s play another.

A serpent companion,

ENIGMA #22
Twelve old men sitting in a circle,
Each one older than the last.
Their chanting rhythm is eternal,
Counting time that has been passed.

A Girl of Twenty-One 🙆
A girl of twenty-one stuck in the decision she made. Loves writing and reading. Enjoys a comfortable talk on a nice couch. Many ideas in mind, many excuses to make them never happen. Waiting for a guy who lives so far. While bringing the newer and better version of herself.

ENIGMA #21
A wooden weapon that knows no violence. Has the power to fill a room with silence. Long whiskers and a slender form Sounds like an infant that's just been born.

Two Souls.
Round, blue, green, wonderful Seperated time by the time of a big star in galaxy awake and fall Two souls seperated by distance Giving love and wonderful things that might happen on Earth The misunderstanding comes once in a while by that condition Leave the feeling of anger to one another Ignoring the conversation and trying to be uncare Till the time goes by And they realize What’s it all for

ENIGMA #20
A small cake with some difference,
It’s like a brick but also incense.
Fresh and sweet in the home,
give it water and watch it foam.

ENIGMA #17
A giant spotlight for the night.
Scarred and bruised but can be quite bright.
Sometimes turns away when shy,
Loves the ocean, no one knows why.
Previous answer: gift wrapping paper.

A decorative shield to cover the prize,
make it unseen for your eyes.
Can cover anything – big or small,
take it off and uncover all.
