Puzzles vs Riddles

     A puzzle’s like a riddle 
       You hope to be surprised

     But to solve a real-good riddle
       I often close my eyes

I like how it kinda sounds like a nursery rhyme. I've used that puzzle solving technique - sometimes something from the back of my mind surfaces, but most of the time, I just pull out all the remaining hairs from my head.
