I am South by Southwest; I am North by Northeast;
When presented with Power, I’m bullets, at least;
I’m the moment in water where steam is released;
And a single percentage that dropped or increased.

Who am I?

When in bridge, I’m the suit that is mostly desired;
When I’m up, I’m false charges that have been conspired;
When I’m last, I can wake those already expired;
But you probably know me for saying “You’re fired!”

I’m the final frontier, as a few would suggest;
I loom large on the keyboard, but nothing when pressed;
I’m a Washington needle; your car’s place to rest;
And I’m traded on TV, as Paige can attest.

I’m the shape of the world, whether circle or sphere;
I’m a cartridge of ammo; or eighteen holes clear;
I’m a lean cut of meat from the back of the steer;
And the tab to buy each of your buddies a beer.

I’m a place in the mall to buy burgers or soup;
When I’m Kangaroo, crooked; or ‘roos in a group;
To go after a date or show up on her stoop;
And a place to play sports with a net or a hoop.

Who am I?

I’m what Yogi the Bear calls his number one prize;
I’m a place for used paper and other supplies;
A collection of goods that show prices can rise;
And I’ll hold all your eggs, though it may not be wise.

Who am I?

I can tackle a task; I can often be brute;
I drop balls you release and launch bullets you shoot;
When a runner in baseball must follow his route;
I’m the cops on the beat; I’m the troops with the chute.

Who am I?

I’m a picnic locale on the grass by the lake;
You can maintain your bike with the tools that I make;
I am stopping your car and applying the brake;
And when South, a cartoon that can really look fake.

Who am I?

I’m an arm with no hand; I’m a tree with no trunk;
On campaign trails, a speech that is often pure bunk;
I’m the Fall Out Boy frontman, a player of punk;
And when riddles are hardest, I’m named when you’re sunk.

Who am I?

I am cash with no rules; I am Rock with no kicker;
I’m a target sans guard; I’m a drink with no liquor;
I’m not metal or wood - I am leather or wicker.
If the answer’s not hard, you should think of it quicker!

Who am I?
