Emperor Penguin

The emperor penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) is the tallest and heaviest of all living penguin species and is endemic to Antarctica. The male and female are similar in plumage and size, reaching 100 cm (39 in) in length and weighing from 22 to 45 kg (49 to 99 lb). Feathers of the head and back are black and sharply delineated from the white belly, pale-yellow breast and bright-yellow ear patches. Like all penguins, it is flightless, with a streamlined body, and wings stiffened and flattened into flippers for a marine habitat.

On a panel in a cupboard in a hidden room
In a mansion, a forgotten family heirloom
The lustre of the loss adjusters can't dispel the gloom
She slumbers in a swoon
Flaming June

He's coming in
She's going out
She gives a shout
She's like a lion
He's like a lamb
Can't understand
Bird in the hand
He can't stop crying
As they sat down to breakfast one day
The butler served divorce on a tray
Forgotten in a Battersea flat
He keeps the asking price in his hat

Flaming June
Sleeps 'til noon
Calls the tune
Flaming June

Uniformed staff
Crystal carafes
No riff raff
Nothing could be finer
Gone to the dogs
She popped her clogs -
Stuff catalogued
Monogrammed china

Thank god it isn't me, say the neighbours
She hated sympathetic strangers
He didn't mean to start an adventure
She locked herself away from the censure

I don't know much about art but I know what I like
Nothing abstract that a child could have done
The portrait of a lady with not a lot on
No-one comes to call on all
the endless afternoons
She slumbers in a swoon
Flaming June
