In his book “Songs of Innocence” William Blake had a poem called “The Lamb.” In his book “Songs of Experience” Blake had the corollary poem “The Tyger.” In the second poem, Blake asks, “Did he who make the lamb make thee?”
For Blake, innocence was the pre-fallen state, or what one might call “bliss,” “Paradise” or “Eden.” Experience was the fallen state, in which human beings suffer and die.
For me the poem is largely about the contrast between an innocent lamb and the savage tiger that would slay and devour it, given the chance.
Having contrasted the two creatures, Blake asks if the same being created them both. An unasked question might be, “Why would the Creator design one creature to rip apart and eat the other?”
Blake doesn’t answer the question, but closes by repeating his vivid description of the ferocious tiger, asking who dared to create it.
