The Ballad of Zippy the Penguin
By Jake Stine

This is the new website version of Zippy the Penguin, since my journal verison has gone completely unseen by the world and its charming inhabitants. Please note that Part Two of the ballad is a hommage to Homer and the Iliad in particular (Read it here!). For those of you who haven't read the Iliad (or at least part of it or the cliff notes or something), Part Two will probably seem a little bizarre and maybe a bit hard to follow. Still, I hope you will enjoy them both.
