    About this ebook

    With a sharp focus on duality, The Dissection of a Tiger is a surreal journey not only into the cage of the beast, but down its throat, sometimes even becoming the tiger.

      the dream

      is the gate secure

      tiger in love

      i could miss him if he’d let me go

      the moon an eye

      say something

      caged

      tiger’s lament

      bring him peace, bring him joy, he is young, he is only a boy

      could u love urself if u were safe

      tiger loves a cage

      bite wound knife wound bullet wound

      familiarity

      fragile
