Pallas Bat

Pallas bat sips nectar from rare flower
This bats tongue has extraordinary power
The bat needs lot of nectar to devour
So he flies hour after hour

Flower blooms for only seven days
Bat on its nectar like antelope on grass would graze
Bats huge tongue nectar towards its mouth will rise
Using blood to expand the tongue adaptation that can amaze

Because if human had this kind of tongue
The tongue
Would be nine feet long
Our tongue is not but we can use it to sing complicated song

This is evolution at work 
But what if evolution needed no reference point to work
Would it not be an interesting quirk? 
And from orb controlling time view no need of reference point now that would be a quirk

 But since continuity can always go beyond
The divine like power from this base would have spawned 
And new amazing day would have dawned
Creating something that can touch the very soul and beyond
