"it is more powerful than god
it is more evil than the devil
the poor have it
the rich need it
if you eat it, you will die
what am i? "

The answer is?

That was a little trickier, but River is the answer.

not bad....not bad at all, i might have to add you to my favourites

try this one

I never was, am always to be,
None ever saw me, nor ever will,
And yet I am the confidence of all
Who live and breathe on this terrestrial ball.

Hmmmm, at first I thought God, but that doesn't fit with the 'all' on ball bit. So (and this is more a guess than the previous two) I think the answer is Tomorrow

you were both correct......


i hope this is theraputic, as well as stimulating

last one for tonight

I am the black child of a white father;
A wingless bird, flying even to the clouds of heaven.
I give birth to tears of mourning in pupils that meet me,
and at once on my birth I am dissolved into air.
