Fragments of the future fly past
In charming visions and dreams
In agility and analytical contemporariness
Promising exactitude of ostentation

Blank verse
With elegance the peacock
Struts in show of vanity
An admiration seeker
Flaunting bold feathered attire
Throws modesty to the wind.

My poodle once had a flirtation
With 'Dotty', my neighbour's dalmation.
Their pups wear topknots
Are sprinkled with spots
And walk with a marked ostentation.

Glad,hedonistic lad;
Delighting in delectations,
Amusing affectations,
Posturing pretension
with ogling ostentation!
Professing pleasure seeking
Confessing,leisure leaning.
Reputation so revealing,
Passe peer appealing!
Performing,extroverting,
Showcasing,demonstrating,
Superficial and artificial;
Pleasure without measure.

Enriching knowledge was our scope...
But avarice derailed our friendship...
Ostentation unfurled through your face...
Hurricanes of emotion...
The island boy devoured your soul with deceptions..
So u casted mistrustful eye on me...
Am now cut to the quick...
Will however give you that tiny victory but that will be for a short while..

(The world’s fasted growth industry)
“While the shopkeeper
displays his wares,
for the whole world
to peruse!”
In infamous sway
behind the ostentation
lives the truth of his
draconian sweat!
The attestation of
wholesale systems
groveling in strategic
mayhem, created to
delegate accountability
to the lowest common
denominator!

Elegant portico columns, fireplace frame
Fronting tasteful, demure white walls
Rich browns -- pianoforte, armchair
Muted ostentation, classicism bespoken --
the eye startled, struck
by the clear glass vase
on the mantel
stems ascending
to bold-green leaves
slightly upturned
as are firm, youthful breasts
topped by brilliant bursts
of pink-streaked flowers
