V

Veronica was the Veiled Voice of Vienna, as heard on the Victrola, and vacuous vamp. In private life a voracious reader of Voltaire and Virgil, who received the Victoria Cross for valor. A voodoo woman once told her to always wear violet, though never visibly.

She came from vicars from Vichy, and victorious Vicounts, all VIPs, though vicious and vindictive. Valentino was one of her lovers.

Vexed by vodka, she died during vespers. In the vacuum, her son Vincent became an avowed vegetarian, living by his violin near Versailles.



Vestals invite me.
Venus offers me vervain.
Vagabond, I stay.
