Share | Ar Taboo Ours To

Verdict: A haunting, jagged little mirror. Look too long, and you’ll see yourself.

Fans of experimental poetry, microfictions, or anyone who’s ever shared a secret they shouldn’t have. Least for: Readers wanting resolution or tidy grammar. ar taboo ours to share

Here’s a review written as if for a short story, poem, or experimental art piece titled Review: ar taboo ours to share ★★★★☆ (4/5) Unsettling, intimate, and deliberately fractured Verdict: A haunting, jagged little mirror

If there’s a flaw, it’s that the work can feel too elusive. Some images repeat without deepening, and the middle section loses momentum in abstraction. But that might be the point—taboo often circles the unspeakable without landing on it. Least for: Readers wanting resolution or tidy grammar

The piece thrives on that ambiguity. Each stanza (or scene) feels like a Polaroid developing wrong—familiar shapes emerging in eerie colors. You’ll find echoes of forbidden knowledge, intimacy weaponized, and the strange vulnerability of making private shame public. The language is sparse, almost reticent, which makes the moments of raw clarity hit harder: “You said don’t tell / then told everyone yourself.”

“ar taboo ours to share” doesn’t offer the comfort of linear narrative. Instead, it reads like overheard fragments of a confession—whispered in a crowded room, then spliced with static. The title itself resists easy parsing: “ar” could be pirate vernacular, a half-formed word, or the start of “our.” The phrase “taboo ours to share” turns secrecy into a communal burden. Whose taboo? And why must it be shared?

A year after Lala came to Earth, she is all the more determined to make Rito fall for her, putting all her effort into it, even though she knows that Rito actually loves Haruna. Poor Rito will have to face tough times since Lala's younger twin sisters, Nana and Momo, now live in the same house, along with Rito's reliable sister, Mikan, and Celine.

Fun and trouble await with their friends from school, with Lala's usually catastrophic inventions, and Yami's contract to kill Rito...

As close encounters of the twisted kind between the residents of the planet Develuke (represented primarily by the female members of the royal family) and the inhabitants of Earth (represented mainly by one very exhausted Rito Yuki) continue to escalate, the situation spirals even further out of control. When junior princesses Nana and Momo transferred into Earth School where big sister LaLa can (theoretically) keep an eye on them, things SHOULD be smooth sailing. But when Momo decides she'd like to "supplement" Rito's relationship with LaLa with a little "sisterly love," you know LaLa's not going to waste any time splitting harems. Unfortunately, it's just about that point that Yami, the Golden Darkness, enters the scene with all the subtleness of a supernova, along with an army of possessed high school students! All of which is certain to make Rito's life suck more than a black hole at the family picnic. Unless, of course, a certain semi-demonic princess can apply a little of her Develukean Whoop Ass to exactly that portion of certain other heavenly bodies!

Rito Yuki has more women in his life than he knows what to do with. In case it wasn’t enough to have all three Devilukean princesses under one roof, he now has alien girls from all over the galaxy attending his school, too! But when the arrival of a mysterious red-haired girl threatens one of their own, Rito and the girls must stand up to a powerful adversary- the likes of which they’ve never seen before.
