A Penguin named Jane
In my dreams
I see you dancing
naked on the sand
veils dropping
pearlescent skin
rosebud nipples
and a waxed netherland,
awake me from sleep
In my days
I see you in the kitchen
in boxers and a singlet
whether it be a dream
or in my waking days
I've never wanted you more
Read the rest of the poem Show less
never loved you more
You are my people
and I am yours
I am your Penguin
for life
