This is wild in a good sense. The idea of the Penguins fighting the colonisers is humorous although lines from the poem are addressing much larger problems.
"They rubbed our women's beaks, and stomped on our eggs" - suggest exploitation of women and breaking of lineage or culture.
"They used our precious ice cube, in their coca-cola and mountain dew." -maybe reflects how consumerism and westernization is choking the nature.
the poem is beautifully closed.
This is one of the very few poems I have read that blends humour, satire, historical events and exploitation all together.
Keep up the great work!

I’m a songwriter, vocalist & music producer, and I love turning poems into full songs. If any poet here wants a free short demo of their poem turned into music, just send it over!
