Pentagrams?

Pentagrams?

A pentagram is difficult - especially a small one. Here are the
smallest half-decent pentagrams I managed to do:

          M
         M M
     "M""M"M""M"       That is not very good...
       "M   M"
        Mo oM
       M ,", M
       M"   "M


               M
              M M
              M M
             M   M
     ""M""""M"""""M"""""M"       This actually looks like one.
        "o  M     M  o""
          "Mo     oM"
           M "ooo" M
          M  o"""o  M
         oMo"     ""Mo
         "           "

Anything smaller becomes unrecognizable:

Is there a way to do, say 5x5 characters, pentagram?!?

         _/\_    <---- doesn't look anything like one,
         �'`�          besides '�' is not ascii...
          '`
