The Other Tiger By Jorge Luis Borges <3 <3
Borges is dreaming again; from his labyrinthine library he conjures a tiger. A song, an image of a tiger of the Ganges, a magnificent beast. But actually not a beast, but an image! He tries to write of that real, bloody, hot and pulsating tiger, but ho ho! he has spoken of it again, and again a fiction! The third tiger is the absent tiger, Borges speaks of it only insofar that he cannot speak of it.
Borges cannot speak of the tiger, the one that is. In lieu he creates a poetic shadow, that presses mischievously against the kingdom of the real.
A silent description.
