Tyger, Tyger,
I am sure ya'll read the poem? I stated in an older theory that Partridge was a pawn and it was confirmed on the first episode. I believe RJ had Partridge record the message Jane received prior to sacrificing him. Due to the fact that the message was not a message that returned any answers jane asked about, it just stated a message. So I believe Partridge was in fact a disciple of RJ and maybe CBI Ron is too, since I saw the picture of him on the phone when Patrick got the call.
Anyway, to the tyger tyger poem, I believe that the meaning behind it is what I have stated before that Bret Stiles is Bob Kirklands father and Kirkland is responsible for the killings and is the true Red John. The poem insinuates that the tiger is a resourceful beast and very dangerous along with a passion for killing. how the tiger is so beautiful of a creature can be so deadly (symmetry). The poem goes on to say "In what distant deeps of skies, burnt the fire of thine eyes?" (What made him like this?) "And what shoulder, and what art, could twist the sinews of thy heart?" (I believe it is saying what life changing occurrence led you to these acts of heartless crimes) The next verse I am surmising is based on creativity and creativity back in 1794 when Blake wrote this poem, there wasn't much outside of a Blacksmith. So it goes on to say "What the hammer? what the chain? in what furnace was thy brain? What the anvil? what dread grasp, dare its deadly terrors clasp?" (Think of creating a sword, a Blacksmith would hammer it and furnace it and shine it up bright, yet what he just created was not only a work of beauty but a tool of death, again symmetry) It is a metaphor.
ok, the last part which brings me to my idea of the father and the son theory is..."When the stars threw down their spears and watered heaven with their tears, did he smile his work to see? Did who made the Lamb make thee?" (ok I know Im getting deep here but once the beast is unleashed and the damage done, did the father smile at what was created? I believe blake was referring to when God made man and the Lamb, Jesus. (the sacrificial lamb) "Did who made the Lamb make thee?" I think the question here is, is the beast a direct result of the fathers personality, is Stiles responsible for the way Kirkland (RJ) is. Did Stiles somehow kill Kirklands mother? Or was Kirkland made to do Stiles bidding? The lamb being the innocence of a child who turned into the tiger, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. We have seen the people associated with RJ take their own lives, that is some heavy shit! Who other than Stiles could do that?? I know what your gonna say, Patrick could. I guess but for what purpose? Lets just say his wife was going to leave him and he killed her like some other theories ponder, and he made up the whole RJ thing. So why keep going? He got away with it. I think the problem with RJ became an issue when Patrick started to gain momentum and it is a pride thing with RJ, a game so to speak. Who is better at this game? Anyway, I will get back to work now and continue to believe my theory. I hope you enjoyed my twisted mind for a while. thanks. I enjoy reading all your theories too.
