.x. Tiger, tiger burning bright .x.


..The novelty of being scrutinized wasn't anything new. She'd always been that pariah of society. Straying from normalcy as the locals called it. Aren't people lovely? The cynic was roused within the slender toned entity, as once again a thin stream of illumination shone brilliantly from the irids of the brutale...an intensive glare of dilectible orange and pyre from the inferno. Yet just as abrutly as it had come it disappeared, leaving the turbulence still within those inexorable orbs -- veiled by a slim arch of sooty lashes. Blinking questionably at the distant mascu, digits fondle absently with the ebonite patterns etched within the mocha of her appendages, immaculate talons lightly gliding o'er its smooth surface..

. Tiger, Tiger .
Tiger, tiger, burning bright,
In the forest of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare seize the fire?

And what shoulder, and what art,
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
When thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand forged thy dread feet?

What the hammer? What the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? What dread grasp
Dared its deadly terrors clasp?

When the stars threw down their spears
And watered heaven with their tears,
Did He smile his work to see?
Did He who made the lamb make thee?

Tiger, tiger, burning bright,
In the forest of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

--Wiliam Blake
