Deadly HorizonRiddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.
I hover out there in darkness unseen.
I will shred things to pieces 'till they're just smithereens. I might serve as a gateway to places unspoken, Yet I'm sealed off to man, forever unbroken. I twist and distort, only darkness escapes, I destroy all I find Whatever I take. AnswerA black hole.Scientists theorize that black holes and wormholes might lead to other dimensions or different parts of the universe and so on. Thus a "gateway to places unspoken." Man cannot (as yet) enter a black hole. The end is self-explanatory. As for the hint, black holes have an event horizon, and if something is to pass it, there is no way of escaping. (At least none that we know of.) Hide What Next?
