Ode To Bats

Soaring through the sky of early fall
   Abolishing mosquitos, eating for all

   Your siren song echoes in the night.
Hungry little teeth white and bright

Webbed wings flank the higher you soar.
  Dark vessels visible through the black uproar

  You’ve joined all your friends in your endless hunt
Soft chitters of excitement flow through your bunch

For bats eat the stealers, back to the blood
    Warm and well, swarming like floods
