    Pain?
    "A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King

    Did you write this riddle razz?

    I like it.


    The line " I make man plant and animal quake" may be a key.

    While I have no clue to the answer...I like this.

    It appears well constructed and thought out.
    This appears that thought and skill were used.
    I suspect there may have been some " research" too.


    Without knowing the answer...this may be a display of art... a skill.

    Maybe too early to reveal the answer.
    A little hint is always appreciated

    care to break down the riddle? I can see most of how it fits, but would be interested in your thought process in making it up.
