Improv 45 (“Explaining an Affinity for Bats” Stallings)


“MegaBat and Pueo (the Barn Owl and the Fruit Bat)”

A tail-less meerkat, cocooned in his own embrace
Upside down, patiently looming for his wise spotted-breast
side-kick to return with the nightbeat and some avocado.
“They say you need to compromise the mango trees”
She confessed.
“I will not be vanquished by puny buzzballs”
He persisted.
She began to pluck away chromatic plume after plume
from her regal form.
He frantically flapped and produced mousey ‘Eeks!’ to
obstruct her horrid habit.
She darted towards the hive, he resumed to his cocoon
in triumph. She never sonically announced her plot
and gorged away his stunned expression.
