    :-: sisyphus may have his boulder, but this eagle is twice as bad...

    my appetite cannot be whet,
    and i've never had a silhouette.
    i feel not pain, but i can be killed.
    i may have a master, but i shall not be willed.
    i dance about, as if moved by passion,
    though it leaves me weak, my composure ashen.



    (i tried to post a rose icon, but i can't seem to find the button, even on the advanced editor...)

    nice riddle

    for the rose icon, you need to select it when you first post the thread - not a worry if its missed though, ive added it for you

    is the answer a Fire?

    my appetite cannot be whet, - play on words with fire always being hungry / water smothering the flames
    and i've never had a silhouette. - no shadows possible
    i feel not pain, but i can be killed. - snuffed out?
    i may have a master, but i shall not be willed. - unsure, perhaps to do with man's use of fire
    i dance about, as if moved by passion,
    though it leaves me weak, my composure ashen. - the quicker a fire is burning the faster the flames are moving
