To my special son


I have a special son, whose name is Jon
He scorns the use of an H that is silent
Not only is he the Costal fan club President
he is also a client

We vowed a special love that did grow
like Andrew Cain's eye-blocking hair length
tho some even called our love grotesque
like Gotham's new DA Harvey Denth
Jon loves films, the theatre
community service and drama
he writes oh so nicely
refusing to use the comma

His passion infectious and
his commitment knows no dearth
"my special son went on a mission to Africa,
and all I got was this lousy t-shirt"

He did his Chosen project alone
I pleaded, yelled and yelped
so next time he was careful
to pretend his family helped

From Homer to Shakespeare
Remus and Romulus
and remember we even covered
your main homeboy Jesus

But together we have sought great meaning
in this mediocre place
even answered the age-old question
what came first heaven or space?

Long ago we took that special pledge toward
a mutual love we would proctor
cuz sometimes we dine alone
but sometimes we dine with the doctor
