who am I?

Who am I?
I am Mark Jones.
Yes,  one of the Joneses.
Yes there are a  lot of us.
Yes it's a conspiracy...oops.
Now I have to KILL YOU!

That is the Jones sense of humour.
I got it from my Dad. Mom just laughs at us.
That's why I can be funny and laugh at myself.

Some Jonses are bold adventuresome hero types like Indiana
Or "smooth walkin' smooth talkin' long lean Jones"
I am not that Jones.

Some Jonses are hoity toity snobs with lots of stuff.
They are the rich upper crust but flaky.
People still want to keep up with them.
I am not that Jones.

Some Jonses have addiction problems.
Like Jughead, they can't get enough and they can't get control.
They even named a slang term for them: Jonesing.
I am not that Jones.

Some Joneses are rebel rocker punk outcasts with tattoos.
Like Steve(Sex Pistols) or Mick(the Clash) or Brian(the Stones)
Even Davy from the Monkees could sort of rock.
I am not that Jones.

Some Joneses are psycho cult leaders poisoning the koolade.
I am NOT that Jones.

Some Joneses are smooth jazzy entertainment professionals.
Like Quincy or norah or even George.
I am not that Jones.

Some Joneses are the model of physical perfection
Full of poise and charm and style.
Like Grace or Rashida, or Catherine Zeta.
I am not that Jones.

Some Jonses have gravitas, magnetic personality, intensity,
and the rich mellifluous voice to go with it.
Like James Earl, Tommy Lee, Chuck(the cartoon king)
Or even mama Partridge, Shirley.
I am not that Jones.

I am fearfully brave when I have to be.
I am satisfied with what God provides.
I have a modicum of disciple, coffee and books aside.
I like to rock and or roll.
I have some blog followers.
I busk at the farmer's market.
I am kinda cute and charming.
I have acted and even directed a play or two.
I am that Jones.
