the day I found out about echolocation, I was rocked.
in the when, not the if – a country I salivate for –
she could find me with her eyes closed.
she says my mouth falls open during sleep.
hers does that also. we sleep wings in. I hear her feet, soft
like the cat’s biscuits on my pillow. we sleep
upside down, to most. but I'm kept a lot safer
that way. if your eyes were brown, you’d look like
a bat. I bet. she would know. she sees me in higher frequency.
