Numero Uno, is from Aravind Adigar's book "the white tiger", where he goes to introduce the most infrequent animal in the jungle . But capture , and it looses the stripes .
The inspector pointed his cane straight at me " You , young man , are an intelligent , honest , vivacious fellow in this crowd of thugs and idiots . In any jungle , what is the rarest of animals – the creature that comes along only once in a generation . "
I thought about it and said " The white tiger"
"That's what you are , in this jungle"……….
From the "White Tiger" – Aravind Adagar
The next is from a song by the much hyped band -Killers . Who seem to be saying the importance of living free.
Run neon tiger there's a lot on your mind
They promised just to pet you, but don't you let 'em get you
Away, away, oh one
Under the heat of the southwest sun
You took to the spotlight like a diamond ring
They came from the woodwork in the hopes they might
Redeem themselves for poor decisions to win big
Run neon tiger there's a lot on your mind
They'll strategize and name you, but don't you let them tame you
You're far too pure and bold
To suffer the strain of the hangman's hold.
Neon tiger- Killers
And the third is a Sri Lankan folk tale about a man who held on to a tiger's tail and could not let it go. How the capturer himself became entrapped.
The full circle.
like TNA .. haha
