BOBBY THE BAT & His Beautiful Breathing Patterns

________________________________________________________________________________________________


Arnie Levin
New Yorker Magazine
September 28, 1987

In the animal kingdom
it is scientifically known

That respiratory problems–
everywhere–are easily shown

Which animal has none?
we now whimsically ask:

Bobby the Bat & his ilk
because of this task

LUD, an acronym that should
be introduced by a clown,

Stands for something simple:
Laugh Upside Down





But you can  call it  "Inversion Therapy."
