"Ostentatiously:"

is it too long for haiku?

Obviously not.

Can the stars see us?

Maybe one has made a wish

On you, Alberic.

You crack yourself up?

My sister and I laughed too

As I read aloud.

Vampire ninjas? Yes...

after all, Princess Bride had

a pirate ninja.

We are all mad here;

watch your cat vanish before

your very own eyes.

Why do we confess?

It's a play for sympathy;

I do it a lot.

You are not just You:

names are what we call ourselves

so You are not Me.

And they have power:

someone says to you, "hey, [name]!"

and you turn around.

Not only are you

in tune with nature, but

mythology too.

Maybe too arcane-

who do you expect to know

the names of the winds?

Blackbird on the fence

Red and yellow on each wing

Quoth you: "Nevermore."
