Ancient Greek word ποιητής (poiētēs), pronounced roughly as
                    "poy-ay-TAHS".

                    sounds like  POTUS


Greek verb ποιέω (poieō), pronounced roughly as "poy-EH-oh".



Cognate with     Poignant
    (having a sharp emotional effect, a connection to the power of words)
