I sit empty-headed, awaiting my turn...

Solved

I sit empty-headed, awaiting my turn
When my myriad children suddenly yearn
For the breach, for the earth, and then to be still
Their deliberate journey repeats at your will.

Is it [spoiler] (#s"a spinning top?")

You need a space between #s and the hidden text in quotes. It's broken your code.

This is a good guess. But I don't think that it works for the entire riddle. spoiler

Not 100% sure on this one Spoiler

2
SandbaggingOP•

Sorry, no. I see some connection, but I don't think it fits.

My guess for now will be spoiler I can see this being wrong though, because my children listed while immobile do continue to move/break apart over time..

A good guess, but not quite. I also like your reasoning, but one thing doesn't fit: spoiler
