Answer:
I am the beginning of eternity the end of time and space the beginning of every end the end of every place.
I'm not really more than holes tied to more holes; I'm strong as good steel, though not as stiff as a pole.
I may only be given but never bought. Sinners seek me but saints do not. (one word).
My teeth help me suck.
I soar without wings I see without eyes. I've traveled the universe to and fro. I've conquered the world yet I've never been anywhere but home.
It flows out of the soil, It burns you if it boils, And holds us in its coils, More valuable than gold, As black as it is old.
