Penguins

Line up in a flock of black and white.

Stand firm on ice cold principles
 the size of a small state.

We just broke off a chunk of Monticello
 but it’s only visible from space.

We’re cracked, we’re melting, we’re floating
 away on a world that looks to us
 like it hasn’t changed since ’76.
