Given to one famous Cretian King

Where ever you turn, you're bound to get lost.

Tartarus, Riddle # 42

I am a creature that dwells in the night
The lives of man are never safe when I extend my hands

Sharks, Riddle #40

while the other usually comes in heaps of pleads

Use your mind, what do you think?

I am a thing which somebody knows
Not really a question yet it's pretty close

Have you thought of what I am, does anyone know?

The culprit that mars
reflections of glass

No steals is not it
no touchdowns or late hits

Do you count calories? I'm sure you can count these.
