Tiger Poems

How neatly a cat sleeps,
sleeps with its paws and its posture,
sleeps with its wicked claws,
and with its unfeeling blood,

human being to supply any given army on any given day

and the best at murder are those who preach against it

Belinda lived in a little white house,
With a little black kitten and a little gray mouse,
And a little yellow dog and a little red wagon,
And a realio, trulio, little pet dragon.

DEEP in the shady sadness of a vale
Far sunken from the healthy breath of morn,
Far from the fiery noon, and eve's one star,
...

Rintrah roars and shakes his
fires in the burdenM air,
Hungry clouds swag on the deep.
...

I prefer red chile over my eggs
and potatoes for breakfast.
Red chile ristras decorate my door,
dry on my roof, and hang from eaves.

ST Agnes' Eve---Ah, bitter chill it was!
The owl, for all his feathers, was a-cold;
The hare limp'd trembling through the frozen grass,
And silent was the flock in woolly fold:
...

It's no go the merrygoround, it's no go the rickshaw,
All we want is a limousine and a ticket for the peepshow.
Their knickers are made of crepe-de-chine, their shoes are made of python,
Their halls are lined with tiger rugs and their walls with head of bison.

My well-beloved was stripped. Knowing my whim,

And showed such pride as, while her luck betides,
A sultan's favoured slave may show to him.

Where's the Poet? show him! show him,
Muses nine! that I may know him.
'Tis the man who with a man

In tattered robes that hoard a glittering trace
Of bygone colours, broidered to the knee,
Behold her, daughter of a wandering race,
Tameless, with the bold falcon's agile grace,

Round about the couldron go:
In the poisones entrails throw.
Toad,that under cold stone

For I will consider my Cat Jeoffry.
For he is the servant of the Living God duly and daily serving him.
For at the first glance of the glory of God in the East he worships in his way.
For this is done by wreathing his body seven times round with elegant quickness.

Tiger, tiger, prowling fierce, silent
Creeping sly among jungle shadows
Following scent trail between trees
Seeking prey to fill empty belly.

There is this tiger inside of you that has risen from

The things that you have been through in your life,

The Indian Princess walks her tiger
Around the opulent palace grounds
Her strong tiger always serving and obeying her
Every utterance and command she does vocalize

the eye of a vengeance
the eye of the tiger is,
the eye of a clash tiger
