Bijay Kant Dubey Tiger Poems

In the Tiger Temple
I see the Buddhists
Of the Theravada sect
Living with the tigers
...

Blake, talked you of the bright and burning eyes of the tiger
And the Maker making it,
Experimenting with ferocity, brutality and beastiality
And Milton, talking of Satan and his snake,
...

Tiger, how ferocious and ruthless
Is it in its growl and roar,
You see that,
Tiger,
...

In the Tiger Temple
Saw I
The Buddhist monks
Rearing
...

There was a time
When the lions and tigers used to roar in the hills
And we used to hear from the hamlets,
Thinking about the distant growl and roar
...

In the Tiger Temple
I see the Buddhists
Of the Theravada sect
Living with the tigers
...

I do not mind
What the animal activists talk it nonsense,
I love to see
The monks walking with
...

Tiger! tiger! the terror of the forest
And the wild,
The brute,
The bloody brute
...

Tiger

Tiger, Tiger
The terror of the forest,
...
