The joy of this season is what designs this new year
It lingers in my heart, body and soul of praise with cheer
I sing of His royalty; my heart sings
He drums supportively in loyalty despite of my nature; oh King of kings
Truly the lord is good; outstanding is Him in His dealings, oh great lord!
Taking over; over pranks, tease and frankness- the charge of unseen sword
I sing of His royalty; my heart sings
He drums supportively in loyalty despite of my nature; oh King of kings
O my heart, scream Hallelujah to most high
For He is mighty and powerful
I sing of His royalty; my heart sings
He drums supportively in loyalty despite of my nature; oh King of kings
And His description never goes on off sigh
What a name than others really beautiful!
I sing of His royalty; my heart sings
He drums supportively in loyalty despite of my nature; oh King of kings
You may always frankly mean what you say,
But you always say it in such a mean way.
I though, I always sincerely mean what I say,
Difference is I only give my overall takeaway.
efficient Eddie eliminated evil Edna’s eyeglasses
flustering Frannie Florence, furthering father’s frankness forever
generous Ginnie gave glasses glorious glam, gluing garbage
hallow Hal hinted heroics, having Henry’s huffy habits
ideas ignited, illuminating idiocy in Illinois, Iowa and Idaho
juicy judgement jockeyed jointly, justifying judicial jury
Verse 1
Holy Mayorkas, you have been reproved
I have seen the illegals you are letting through
Distant hordes from down the line
Brand of people who ain’t my kind
Holy Mayorkas, you should be removed
Verse 2
Holy Joseph, you are not believed
Now there’s a coming election and you’ll have to leave
Won’t you please excuse my frankness
But I’ve had it with your senility
Holy Joseph, we have been deceived
Bridge
Slow Joe opened the border for nearly four years
His office and power he abused
I know you don’t care but you oughta
But it’s clear to all you seem a little confused, oh
Holy Joseph, we have been deceived
Verse 3
Holy migrants, let us not increase
Let us strive to find a way to not just catch and release
There’s a man over there, what’s his name? I don’t care
He ain’t my brother, fix the border please, oh
He ain’t my brother, fix the border please, oh
He ain’t my brother, fix it and let us live in peace

My version of Elton John's classic song.
The Year: Long Squandered 1999;
Frank Flynn had found my sent parceled poems ‘fine’
“They can lend themselves... to live performance”
Wherefore I mount for each surveillance….
An Atypical BBC Staff:
His signed statement A frankness not by half;
Laminated have I his bold comment:
Above My First Degree ‘A Document.’
Saw Frank, too, in My Enclosed Verses
‘ Originality of Rhythm’
Then, whoever, their action rehearses
Hasn’t The Spurious got to fathom.
And Frank had marked their “freshness of vision”
I began to crave their prompt diffusion…
Owe I Frank self-rediscovery:
A focus sidelining livery;
Strong reasons to start idolizing self
And speedily start assembling A Shelf…
The Last I should crucify of The Crew;
If he were still alive The Safest Jew.’
It was Edison In a lab
Gave night its noon.
He bottled up all he could
Of that hour's boon.
And washing walls the world over
By volt overseen
Moved the sun to frankness;
"My auxiliary sheen!"
Creating laughter*-bliss of good humor
Your tactful frankness is widespread rumor
Bringing contagious mirth-smile
Causing lips to part a mile
Congrats, Sir!** God bless your gladness-glamor.
*Psalm 126:2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them.
**For Mr. Bean and to you who give delight to those you cheer up by testifying about God's goodness.

UNDERWEAR TALKING
- Friend young underwear, I do not understand why.
my owner no longer looks for me but only for you ...
So just answered young underwear:
- It is not complicated to understand, my elder friend ...
He looks for me. because I'm novel, scented,
and you friend, excuse my frankness,
but you already have years of anus ... ha, ha, ha!
IN THE OFFICE
- say 33!
- 33!
- All right, you are healed ...
please pay for the consultation.
- Doctor, say 33!
- 33!
- Well, doctor, You are paid ...
- How is it !?
- I offer you the same treatment doctor.
that you gave to me ... we are cured ...!
GORGEOUS HAIR
"Hey lady, how do I preserve
my lush gorgeous hair! ?
- It is quite simple, die young ...!
MOUTH AND TONGUE
The mouth said to the tongue:
- You are mine, only mine !
"No, I'm hers ... and entered the
mouth of the impressive girl ...!
When you are outspoken
Uninhibited, unreserved
Saying what you think
Being honest and blunt about it
Quite frankly
This is your greatest poetic tri-bute
Can we bring back the child like imagination
When we saw the world with such fascination
When all the colors were bright and bold
Every little thing to us was gold
When we looked at everything with awe and wonder
We thought God bowling was the sound of thunder
When we still believed in fairytales
That good over evil always prevails
When we couldn't get enough of mom's butterfly kisses
Before we gave up on our dreams and wishes
When hugs from dad meant everything
Comfort and security they would bring
When we were able to speak our truth
Having the frankness and innocence of youth
When our love and affection was given so freely
And saying I love you came so easy

1 Corinthians 13:11
Deserving all deserts and worth all worths,
My love is admiration’s mirrored whole,
A shadowed shade whose forms do form rebirths,
I’m boldly uncontrolled in her control.
A burning nymph who’s in all fairness fair,
My love’s accounted without frankness frank,
To stress distress she counts my bareness bare
And burns my ardor with a rankness rank.
To hold and not be held is wealthless wealth,
To see and not be seen is sightless sight,
To cure and not be cured is healthless health,
To love and not be loved is lightless light.
A crisp and charming cat sans coyness coy,
My love’s a lifeless life and joyless joy.
That frankness is rare,
It goes away with a name.
I wish to write as a soul,
And not a body with the worldly load.
The energy inside me must shine out,
Unaffected by the crowd.
Presentation of myself as I am,
Without the influence of anyone.
Strange are the ways
Strange are the reasons
For which the society moulds us.
Actions are expected without reason.
I am a heart
I am a soul
I am not a body
I am not a name
Anonymous is what I wish to be
Just like a cool breeze
Influencing the lives I touch,
Spreading the message of love.
For my trustworthiness,
Look into my eyes.
For a positive thought,
Just see me smile.
I'll be a feeling,
I'll be an emotion
For all I know,
For all I care.

Ours is the Choice
A land of hopes,
A land of fears,
A land of laughter,
A land of tears,
A land of love,
A land of hate,
A land of doubt,
A land of faith,
A land of joy,
A land of sadness,
A land of logic,
A land of madness,
A land of shame,
A land of honor,
A land of delight,
A land of horror,
A land of frankness,
A land of duplicity,
A land of justice,
A land of iniquity,
A land of light,
A land of darkness,
A land of wisdom,
A land of rashness,
A land of realities,
A land of dreams,
A land of philosophies,
A land of schemes,
A land of work,
A land of leisure,
A land of pain,
A land of pleasure,
A land of purity,
A land of dirt,
A land of life,
A land of death,
That is our world where we:
Live, work and fantasize,
It is up to us to make it,
Hell or Paradise!
Demetrios Trifiatis
