The Hill Bat Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

The Hill Bat



On the hill
a group of bats
circled

now
only one's left
the others migrated
to the waters and
the caves.

the solitary hill bat
slow over withering flowers
circled sad:
sad
but not demoralized
for
as the twilight came he got more strength
as the dusk came he got more strength
more piercing his cries
more meaningful
more pulling the Earth's ears
his accusation-cries
