Tiger, Tiger, Feel No Ill Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

Tiger, Tiger, Feel No Ill

Rating: 5.0


A man when wants to kill
A tiger, it's for thrill,
Thinks, he's playing a game—
Game, whatso be the name,
Sports for him and pass-time,
And never once a crime,
An act deemed courageous.

But when a tiger wants to kill
A man, poor beast, is ferocious,
And a man-eater turned,
That be captured, or gunned.
One thing, two ways to deal,
Tiger, tiger, feel no ill!
