 Puzzles puzzle people

Thinking takes the toll

And admitting an answer

Dares dashing down danger's den

Hooray for alliteration! I really like the sounds that you chose for this piece - the hard consonants of the outer lines are a really nice contrast to the softer sounds in the inner ones. The last line seems a bit unclear, though. I like the image of something "dashing down danger's den," but "dares" puzzles me. Do you mean it as a noun instead of a verb? It doesn't seem to really make sense then, either, though. Can you explain what you mean there?

Great piece! I think you could expand on this with no trouble if you wanted to.
