London Groundhog Unaffected

Mightily and technologically advanced,
Hibernating bears come to mind.
Who don't like being roused?

That most offensive half-minute,
Exonerating the captain -
Local rendition of Punxsutawney Phil.

Isolated, Mr. Bloomberg sort of asked for it.
An initial investigation suggests
The victory was lost with all hands.
