Assuming you can’t steal an animal’s sense of hearing, or use an electrical device, what would you need in order to hear a pin drop from over 20 yards?
On six feet, I am a noxious drink,
Of whose effects you shudder to think.
Change only my second foot, and then
You convert me into a horrible den
Where the culprit, who gave the noxious drink,
Awaits the fate of which you shudder to think.
“On six feet” means a six-letter word. The first two lines refer to poison. The next two lines refer to prison. The last two refers to where “the culprit” who gave you the poison would go — prison.
