The Bat is dun, with wrinkled Wings -- by Emily Dickinson
The Bat is dun, with wrinkled Wings -- Like fallow Article -- And not a song pervade his Lips -- Or none perceptible.
His small Umbrella quaintly halved Describing in the Air An Arc alike inscrutable Elate Philosopher.
Deputed from what Firmament -- Of what Astute Abode -- Empowered with what Malignity Auspiciously withheld --
To his adroit Creator Acribe no less the praise -- Beneficent, believe me, His Eccentricities --
