I am set in a ring; I am kicked on the ground;
I’m to execute harshly; on graves, I am found;
You can kiss me, I’m Irish; where Scotsmen are crowned;
And an old British unit, fourteen times a pound.
Who am I?

I’m a debt to be paid; I’m a one-dollar note;
I’m a law that’s proposed for the Congress to vote;
I’m the part of a duck that brings food to his throat;
And I’ve asked you “Who am I?” in riddles I wrote.
Who am I?

I’m the test that won’t count; I’m to shoot at the wall;
Where a lawyer consults, or a doctor’s on call;
I’m the work to make perfect; run drills with the ball;
And I’m still the best way to reach Carnegie Hall.
Who am I?

I’m a pulp-fiction hero, with skills to confound;
I’m the secret real government, not to be found;
I’m the least bit of doubt; I’m to follow around;
And the reason that Phil will return underground.
Who am I?

I’m a misspoken word on a Freudian trip;
I’m to slide on the ice at great risk to your hip;
I’m a dock for a ferry; log goods as they ship;
And a garment you slip on… oh, damn my loose lip!
Who am I?

I’m the line in the newspaper easy to bend;
I’m to lay down a hand that you cannot defend;
I am closing a map; I’m a business’s end;
And the sheep in the flock that a shepherd will tend.
Who am I?

I’m the pain that you get from a spicy hot meal;
To destroy paper documents you would conceal;
To create a CD; where your skin starts to peel;
To be thrust in a lust; or deceived by a deal.
Who am I?

I’m a bend in the sidewalk where streets share a light;
Where a boxer can rest between rounds of a fight;
To confront without leaving escape from the plight;
And controlling the goods in a market outright.
Who am I?

I’m a burrowing mammal it’s common to whack;
I’m a blemish that’s seen on a face or a back;
An amount of a substance, as chemists keep track;
And the CTU agent who’s spying on Jack!
Who am I?

My child-centered theories made teaching more human;
The highest-ranked admiral from once Navy crewman;
My library system shows math-based acumen;
And some thought I’d won over Harry S Truman.
Who am I?
