Parent Moment, and a Cipher Haiku

The family's eating lunch together. I'm talking about how weird a movie "Borat" is, and to illustrate I sing the first few lines of the Kazakhstan National Anthem:



Me (singing): "Kazakhstan greatest country in the world... All other countries are run by little girls..."

Mom: Tayo 'yun a.

*long pause*

Me: Asteeg.

Mom: *echoes* Asteeg.

Everybody: *laughs in the manner a TV show family does when it's time to end the episode*

...

What the post title said. The haiku title is the only clue.

PIROUETTE XIII

Cryptologist's blues
All she got from her man was:
"Vybirlbh"

Medyo obvious kasi kapag 'yung phrase 'yung ilagay ko, and besides 5 syllables naman ang "Vybirlbh" kapag isang salita lang (at least sa pagbasa ko)...

It's called Rotate 13/ROT 13, hence the title. It's actually said to be one of the most worthless ciphers out there, kasi you can even decode it by simple finger math.

Nothing can escape obscure poetry. Muahaha!
