THE DISILLUSIONED BAT

                      (Jai Ma Kali)
      THE DISILLUSIONED BAT
:::::::::::::::;;;;;;;;;;;;:::::::;;;;:;;;;;;;;
  Once upon a time a dense woodland was chock-a-block with oodles of Beasts and Birds.There existed complete harmony between the two species until one day a frightful arguments arose.The bane of contention was the superiority status.The Beasts considered themselves to be superior while the Birds claimed vice-versa.As no compromised could be reached,it was decided to to wage an escoramuza to settle the matter once for all.The two breeds started arraying their armies.
   Now a Bat who nested on a bough of a larch was wallowing in the phantasmagoric about his real specie-whether he was a Beast or a Bird.
A flock of Birds fluttering towards the battlefield asked him to join the flock.But the Bat yelled,"Why should I join your group?I am not a Bird."
  Sometime later,Beasts exhorted him to join them and take up the cudgel on their behalf.But he snubbed them,"I am not a Beast.Why should I join you?"
   Luckily,the scrimmage was averted at the eleventh hour.The two species vamoosed to celebrate the occasion.
   The Bat flittered to the camp of the Birds to join the celebration.But the Birds shooed him away saying,"Yo
u are not a Bird."
  Now the Bat flew to the group of the Beasts but had to beat a hasty retreat 
to escape being torn to tatters by the wrathful Beasts.
