cast vicariously as both victim and villain
by the vicissitudes of fate.
This visage, no mere veneer of vanity,
is it vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished.
However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone
vexation, stands vivified, and has vowed to
vanquish these venal and virulent vermin
vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious
and voracious violation of volition.
The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta,
held as a votive, not in vain, for the value
and veracity of such shall one day
vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.
Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers
most verbose, so let me simply add that
it's my very good honor to meet you
and you may call me V.
