WhatWhyHow???

This year, I set myself the foolish task of trying to write something every day, and what you see here is the result. None of this is finished, polished, or in any way good. It's usually a few lines at the end of the day when I'm tired, my head's broken, and this nonsense spills out of it onto the page. Feel free to comment away, and if you think anything has any potential then let me know and I might have a go at working on it further.

But hang on, where's the first month? You've ripped us off! I hear you say... Well, yes. I have been writing since the beginning of January, but it's taken me a while to get the blog up, so everything here is a month old.

A key

Blocker, unlocker, two-faced god
Deceptively simple iron rod
Enabler to all but only the owner
Maker of kings and dethroner
Skilled to create, unskilled to use
Built to admit and to refuse
Open the mind, the city, the door
Seal them tightly, just as sure 
Always rare, often unique 
Easy to hide, hard to seek 
Sometimes plain, sometimes ornate
To enter a fortress or garden gate
What am I?
