Jelena Potpara's poem 'What is a Bat?' is the first piece in Patter.
Potpara's cute little poem was inspired by one of her nieces and exudes whimsy and playfulness off the page.
It's the perfect way to dive into this eclectic collection of poetry, prose, and non-fiction.

We’re not happy about this. But given big tech’s insistence of ramming AI — something we hate more than typewriters — into everything, we’ll allow it.

"can gemini write that for you"
