Only because it's a zombie shirt...

I was thinking maybe "Tiger, Tiger Burning Bright" might be a good one to do with the tiger idea if I redo it. Not sure if it's worth it though.
It's possible that people are reacting to the fact that one of the original versions of this children's rhyme was "eeny meeny miny moe, catch a n****r by the toe" and can then be construed as racist.
I know you're not being racist at all--don't get me wrong! I just know the history of the rhyme since I did a paper on the whole "changes of oral tradition" theme, and people tend to shy away from anything that might be even *barely* construed as racist by the furthest possible stretch of the imagination...
BTW the colors are great, the tiger shape is great...I LOVE the Blake poem idea, though--it might be worth it!
