Bat Dive

I am a bat-diving bitch
doing a bat-faced
bat-diving
sweep
all up in your shit.

Watch me as I lunge, bat-faced and unmanageable, an
acrobat tumbler, all soot-stained and
damageable, dirty
as Santa
on Christmas morning.

I am set on a trajectory, beelined, peremptory unless
met with a sideways step
in which case I
reset
and wind up again.
