Remove my last and I’m a nervous movement. Remove my first and I am a tailless primate. Fully formed, I’m a long, narrow strip that, depending on material, can be used to bind, measure, or record.

In earth's embrace, I dig deep and true, A symbol of luck, in card games too, I carve the path where seeds go deep, When speaking plainly, call a me a me.

there are many words that rhyme with me. my letters are more than three. i am used to voyage a homonym of C.

I can only go forward or backward, when liberated from my tracks. What am I?

I may be small, I may be tall, I live where raindrops barely fall. I hold my water, spines like lace, a prickly plant that owns its space.
