Donkey, you’re the only one I am frighteningly impressed by!
The Tiger with One Hundred Claws – A Surreal Prose Piece
The tiger has one hundred claws and ten eyes. It is utterly confident that no one can outsmart it. One day, it tricked the donkey into carrying it up to the district town to play. The donkey said to the tiger, “Hey, your hair had all turned gray, but your teeth were still pure white and strong. Use your eyes to pull out all your teeth!” When the tiger heard the donkey speak, it was so frightened that it ran and lost ten of its claws.
