Tiger Tiger Burning Bright

I am a tiger in a cage,
Only free when night's dark stage.
Through the day, in captivity I roam,
In the world of cage fight, seeking home.

You release me when shadows fall,
For your unbridled pleasure, I heed the call.
As morning light reveals the dare,
We play the game of truth with care.

Oh, the irony of a man's might,
In the realm of power and night.
Willingly, I've become,
Your nightlight, as day succumbs.
