H. P. Lovecraft - Little Tiger

This short poem describes a tiger with burning eyes that seems to hold some dark knowledge or visions. The tiger is held by thoughtless children against its will and seems to spit and mix its meows with some kind of dark lore or wisdom. The poem uses vivid imagery to portray the tiger as having a subtle, Blakean inner light and eyes of flame and chrome that seem to know secrets.

Little Tiger by H. P.

Lovecraft
Little Tiger
by H. P. Lovecraft
Little Tiger, burning bright
With a subtle Blakeish light,
Tell what visions have their home
In those eyes of flame and chrome!
Children vex thee - thoughtless, gay -
Holding when thou wouldst away:
What dark lore is that which thou,
Spitting, mixest with thy meow?
