One Fantasy Nation Under God

All citizens are happy and healthy
Wealthy and wise
A land where Jesus is Supreme Chancellor
Honorary Crowned Head of State
His Holy Spirit, the fire
Fueling our desire for freedom
For all peoples, for all Mankind
Our Wonderful Counsellor
Who sits on top of our make-believe throne
Undefeatable and all powerfully
Advising the President of Aerth,
Who's just a man, or woman
Elected to protect our interests
Abroad and at home
Throughout the Universe

Bugs Bunny is My Pick

Bugs Bunny’s flippant relaxed attitude and what’s up doc line make him funny
Honorary Marine Master Sergeant with his own star on walk of fame, honey.
His Brooklyn accent makes his signature line terrific as does Mel Blanc’s voice.
He is a cultural icon, according to Charles, Patsy, Ted, Sarah and Joyce.

It is a hoot to watch him walk up to Elmer Fudd who is shooting up the house.
Tap him on the shoulder and say “what’s up doc?” as cool as a fed mouse.
Bugs is my total favorite although I like Woody Woodpecker and Taz a lot too.
I think Bugs is particularly exciting, because he pops up out of the blue.

Has the last line many times, and thwarts Elmer Fudd who gets crazy.
One thing for sure, the cartoonists at Looney Tunes were never ever lazy.

A Title for Trump

 I hereby nominate Donald Trump for the title of 'Honorary Jew' 
  
     ~ The world only hates Israel the way it hates you

waiting for my honorary detective badge

just solved another murder
and put a gold star on my chart
it sits next to my wet-dog-smell-recliner
this is where Beau and I watch crime shows

Solving murders one at a time
gloating when we are right
ignoring my near misses
I have spent years here, waiting for my honorary detective badge.

are you fey

I feel like an honorary leprechaun
Maybe because I am part Irish
but especially because I know where the four-leaf clovers dwell
are you fey? Someone asks as I hand them out at work.
Only Irish, and part leprechaun, I reply.
Dancing a little Irish jig to prove it.

the medal

I just won a medal
I wasn’t in a war
I think it’s made of gold
I don’t know what it’s for.

I’m shocked at what it weighs.
They threw me a parade
I got an honorary degree
Jimmy Fallon had me on TV
now everyone recognizes me

My old friends say I’m fickle
by the paparazzi I am heckled
I was notified that it’s ‘taxable’
It seems that it’s quite valuable
I was afraid it might be stolen
so I put it in the Smithsonian.

Now that I’m not wearing it
people have started to forget
now no one buys me drinks
or cares about what I think.
I’m no longer on the Wheaties box
fame was a drug and I’m in detox

The whole thing was bizarre,
should I do ‘Dancing with the Stars’?
or simply let it go - fadeout gracefully?
I think anonymity suits me.

The Name of the Rose

                   Snow-white blood runs through 
the branches to be activated 
by the Sun's synthesea.
White Oaks in burn of bled-wood,
to turn to the Parapet blossom of infancy,
Peaking curious tops that summit the icy eaves;
ready to be born again after
heart of Mother lion sustains within- 
through pregnant Winter grieve.

A Resurrection
from the dark of the forest, 
embracing the holes in the thicket 
there.
Banking on a show of images
peaking curious props of light 
that summit the abyss of seasoned blight, showing through pierced darkness;
like nail holes of Death in reversal;
conqueror, Life.

The sign of the cross,
buds on its boughs,
outstretched to the sky.
Showing how the wind blows.
Limbs giving homage, to the Son,
the one, honorary blossom, 
Holy a scent sion blessing, right on the nose.
He who would use it's kin's body in the way 
of Universal Salvation.
They show, that they know.
He is the Tree of Life. 
He is it's rose.

Honorary Dad Later On Reply

Our my Schade

As recently as this

Father's Day Sunday

Sent me a message

Saying to my

Honorary Dad

Although I don't and am unable
to say it

I hope you know you are my
Honorary Dad

And because of our family history

I instantaneously both assumed and
also presumed

She was indeed in fact obviously
talking about my father her grandad

She looked after when he was dying

And she was a very young child

And as our conversation gradually
continued

She later and myself also said

Life is pretty simple its mostly all about

Paying attention and listening

And case in point I unfortunately

Provided her with undeniable proof

That I sadly myself whilst talking
a good game was not 

Because when it comes to me

I quite obviously have a blind spot 

But that does not get me off the hook

Or is in any way or form

A valid or genuine 

Excuse

If anything it just proves

The point

I am no more better

But should as obviously does expect

Than from her own Dad

Happening Upon a Faerie Tree

Once upon a summers eve
I happened upon a faerie tree
Saw an elf wiping off his delicate sleeve
He wiggled his pointed toes at me.

How dare you come to spy on us?
He gave me a look of pure disgust.
I apologize I said, I did not mean to cry.
He said “I shall send you away, bye and bye.”

I did not know what this meant I should do.
Never having met the fey in the outdoors before.
I decided to stay, and watch, and wait. Wouldn’t you?
I watched faeries for an hour, maybe more.

Best day of my life so far.
I loved it more than a runaway star.
The fey embraced me and gave me an honorary name.
In their world now I have a teensy bit of fame.

Madder Hats

They scar and mar the alma mater of the altar/
We’re hard on bars as we rock it and lift off far and soar sure of our space car/ 
They’ll never run us flat too solid for that /
Matter of fact we hear ‘em like a fawn’s blat after we snapped with sass and packed brass/
More chatter they chit chat the madder the hats/
Were out here spit for spat aghast at the sadder cast/
Thinking their blabber lasts they flash and lambaste/
Then lay waste and deface their two faced ace/
Glazed flakes with play fakes stake out to take from an honorary mate/
Years they’d wait after my best mates tragic fate/
A frayed tactic that’d leave my Dad, my hero dismayed /
Worked many days, played and paid to have it the way it was made for our stay/
Irked by the flirts of dark days lured by stark strays

Hello Madame Bovidier

Madame Bovidier makes no excuses for her misbehaviors.
her misdeeds are infamous; royalty speaks of her in astounded tones.
is she a relative? An off-blanket cousin? Or character of means unknown?
no one remembers when she first appeared or where she derived from.
her confidence level marches around rooms in steel toed marching boots.
she has the attitude of a brigadier general, and we peons fall into place.
reveling in her self-assurance. Waiting for our next instruction.
she is my honorary auntie, but even grandma fears her.

Nicknaming Abw

We nicknamed her ABW – my cousins and me.
Never told her what it stood for, but she never asked.
She was delighted to be included, for we were a party.
Six wild cousins, thinking up spur of the moment fun.

ABW was thrilled whenever we invited her to our shenanigans.
An only child, she had no one to poke her in the eye or pull her hair.
We gladly filled in these gaps, claiming her as an honorary cousin.
ABW stood for Albino Butterfly Woman, weird, since she was a girl.

She grew into the name, however, and became a scientist.
Studying butterflies in rainforests and exotic one-of-a-kind islands.
We must have been psychic I told my cousin Crazy Little Jimmy.
I thought ABW stood for A Babyish Whiner he replied.

A Claim of a Universe

the universe is a claim of a claim
the universe is a claim of a stake
to claim the universe is to direct the universe
the future direct the future
the future direct the stake of the future
the stake of the future is the direct of the future
the stake of the future is the stake of a direction

the universe is a direct universe
the universe is a direct claim
science claim science
the direction of the universe is the direction of science
to direct is to direct science to its claim
to direct is to direct the direction of science
science claim its direction of the universe

honorary is honorary of science
honorary is honorary of a direction
honorary is honorary of a claim
honorary is honorary of a claim stake
in honor is in honor of a honorary science
in honor is in honor of a future science
in honor is in honor of a claim science

Caring Madness Lives On

So devastating is the joy this arm brings
To the poor and the needy 
With shabby hearts from the titled elite
Heart's  illness is a showoff to seal
The foaming chants on the street
And on the news to make awesome headlines 
What blessed hearts are they that give in secret! 
Not to publish the right hands doings for left hands views
And be composed melodious song be sings
For all they want is fame story so greedy 
Which dwells in guise conceits
A honorary free deal 
Born out of cares that tears the ought treat
Though must have forgotten the day of fame and praises' deadlines 
When time shall be knockedout 
To account for memories blackout
