not at all ... jail cell

i have crafted and shafted and then re positioned
divulged and indulged to precise disposition 
yet frankly my points are most blunt at the end and my walls tend to fall at the slightest of bends
be it not such a bridge but a try at amends,...

In hopes of gaining a heap of knowledge,

   Frank had blown a ton of dough for college!

      But to be perfectly frank,

         He'd have more bucks in the bank,

Tell me Franky
can you explain to me zany
Do you mean purple porcupines
please speak to me plainly
My thoughts are quite slippery
perhaps because it's rainy
My brain feels in pain
ideas making me crazy

Can you make sense out of silly
like mellow mooses eating cheezies
Why does that striped buffalo 
like...

Frankly Speaking

There is a couple on the beach, they have a small room, been on the beach for years, suffered through the worst of it. They have been through every phase. The Hippie, the war protesters -the poet-the artist - the "free love fest"- the...

Frankly, My Dear

Oh, yes the saga of scarlet O’Hara
She was a spoiled little twit
She never had a lick of sense
No not even a little bit

She let all her raw emotions
Rule her every day
No matter the cost of it
She would have her way.

Finally she married Rhett...

Northerners are heading south 
Blue and Orange in an east coast bout 
Right now individuals who are sweet and peach 
Relaxing sunning on a Tampa Bay beach 
Not showing power 
To those folks on an island filled with skyscraping towers 
Still vacationing enjoying rays 
Hoping...

Frankly you didn't give a dam
That pretty much summed up
the whole future of the film industry.

People throw their hands  up and say
I do not give a dam  about what children
watch and mold their lives after.

I don't Give a dam when parents 
protested the...

Frankly
                              
                    

Scarlett was on her own to do what ever she wanted
Because of her the film language today is forever sated

A special law...

Clark Gable Vivian Leigh,
both have a place in history.
If we look back is it true that he sinned?
His words have survived, they haven't "Gone With The Wind".

Nineteen thirty nine the world was in shock,
all those who heard him couldn't help but talk.
They said the countries...

Dearest D.G.,
it appears to me...
you have a slight quandary!

Let me clarify your confusion,
you frivolous fop...
your relationship is a flop.

Lose his number,
as it seems to be...
you were a dirty secret.

His "sister" likely a wife,
don't wreck her life...
just walk away.

His phone neither broken,
nor is it hid...
you naive...

It's a line that I remember.
I could not believe my ears
When Rhett said that word to Scarlett,
And left her in a flood of tears.

Profanity had not been heard
Upon the talking silver screen,
For censors had banned all words
Considered profane or obscene.

It was the year of nineteen-forty.
I...

Today,We may be close 
to our loved ones
But tomorrow,
We might turn up 
being complete strangers.
Before,You would have 
never ceased to put a smile on 
somebody's face
But now,You could be 
the only reason for their 
firmness and gloominess.
Hence,frankly speaking..
"Memories have no Death"
Whenever you feel dejected 
just...
