fewthistle picks some of the best poetry to post. :) And I couldn't resist playing.

I've tried this before (first/last line selection) based on an existing piece of poetry... but it's always something that I want to keep on trying to do. :)

This is based from Edna St. Vincent Millay's poem - with a first/last line as follows:

I had not thought so tame a thing
Could deal me this bold suffering.

Not that this blow be dealt to me:
But by thick hands, and clumsily.
