As the eye-chart blurs in front of him, he is struck by the memory of a high school English class when he cruelly mocked a shortsighted classmate, Jenny "Bat Eyes" Barrett. BAT EYES explores the awkward confusion of first love/sex; how language -- particularly poetry -- can add meaning to everyday non-poetic life; and the power of a moment to stay with you for the rest of your life.
