Ditch and rampart will not slow it down
A thousand soldiers cannot beat it

Short was my life, and brilliant my career;

Behead me, I in lovely green appear;

Behead again, I once was made to save

My chosen inmates from a watery grave.

I'm thinking it's some kind of word that you have to keep taking away letters ("beheading" the words), but don't have the word yet.

Thought I had it with "Graft" and then "Raft", but can't think of one for the first word...so that's not it...

Ahh, it's "SPARK"

Take away the S, and it's PARK

Take away the P, and it's ARK...

But anyone can post a riddle if it's right...I'm so off and on today....

1. What are the only English words with three consecutive repeated letters. For example, sweet-toothed would be one (ee,tt,oo) if it weren't for the hyphen.

Sleeplessness?

Not sure if it counts, as the double s is twice...

EDIT: Just noticed you're looking for multiples. How many words? (so we know when to quit, hehe...)
