The bat kids

 Those bats attack dropping down and curving round in the air
slingshots, throwing rocks you couldn't hit one
Bat drops and catches one in midair
gets married to it and hangs upside down

the kids who hang out near the stables sneering
sometimes use their brooms to hit at the bats
dust and woodchips sprinkle down the bats inches
out of reach


The bats up on those wooden corners well mold resistant
screeching come midnight horse
entertained by the swaying low bulb
releasing in case of a moth

hunger drips upward from the stomach
the creature hears and then dives
those kids emulate them
then forget it
