Bat (Modern Poetry)
Bat (Modern Poetry)
Author: Cai Si

Bats always like to hang upside down
Like fruits, they hang there
This little creature is
The longest-lived mammal of its kind
30 years, truly a lucky one
Also known as Sky Bats, '' in Chinese culture
Why is this so! Perhaps it's due to unwavering focus
The best fliers don't work in the sunlight, but
They only work in moonlight
Never longing for one mountain over another
This branch gazing at that branch, beautiful
What is happiness and joy?
Perhaps it's contentment and self-sufficiency
The fruit-like inverted posture
