I went to a zoo once, it made me sick

Kid calls it stupid....

Shows how stupid kids are.

That animal is doing the sign for infinity. If anything this cat is lucid and artistic.

*depressing

The reality and the symbolism are both incredibly depressing.

kinda like hiking in Israel
poor fella

Doesn't matter how big. Our Tiger enclosure is 10x this size seen and they just walk a bigger loop.

His vision, from the constantly passing bars,
has grown so weary that it cannot hold
anything else. It seems to him there are
a thousand bars; and behind the bars, no world.

As he paces in cramped circles, over and over,
the movement of his powerful soft strides
is like a ritual dance around a center
in which a mighty will stands paralyzed.

Only at times, the curtain of the pupils
lifts, quietly--. An image enters in,
rushes down through the tensed, arrested muscles,
plunges into the heart and is gone.

_THE PANTHER_, Rainer Maria Rilke
