Grammar Riddles: The “Three”-quel
I hear the crickets from the planet Stump chirping away after so much time passing from my last Grammar Riddle. And not one answer. You are all stumped. Ha.
Here, my friends, is the answer:
The aaaaaaaanswer iiiiiiiisssss……
AN ALEXANDRINE
And what is an ‘alexandrine’, you ask? It’s a line of poetry with 12 syllables, or to be more specific, six beats. Iambic hexameter would be an example of an alexandrine.
Soooooooooooooo are you ready for your next riddle, my friends? I promise I’ll go easy on you this time….
***************************************
I live on a planet where ghouls are girls, feathers are firearms, balls are blood clots and moons are giant pies of massive moldy swiss cheese. However, I am not like everyone. I am everyone.
What am I?

I await your answers, readers. Show me what you got. Remember–the answer is a literary device of some kind. Think about it.
