“Though thy body’s plasticene-y, thou” I said, “art sure no weenie,
Penguin proud and brisk, though teeny, walking your Antarctic route
Tell me what you think you’re doing, on this dark Antarctic route?”

For more French animation goodness, look up La Linea.
More on topic though, this is great. That little angry penguin has been living in my head rent free for years and years now. I kinda wish there was a version of this poem that was as long as the Poe original…

Where I live, Pingu is an ice cream served in a penguin's head. With a cowboy hat.

Um, omegajuice, while you're correct that La Linea is excellent, it's rather famously Italian...

Argh! I stand corrected. Thanks prismatic7. Guess I should practice what I preach.

Times like this I always tell people to read Penguin Island by Anatole France.

remembering these ravens: https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~wwu/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=riddles_easy;action=display;num=1056571876 --by the editor of word ways--
& somewhere mike maguire has a website which does the raven in pi-digit letter-lengths (3 letter word, 1 letter word, 4 letter word ktp) but i can't seem to turn it up

I hate to break it to you but those aren't penguin heads.
