10 of a Kind

If my usual wasn't so ordinary And didn't span great feats of generic It may just be shy of extraordinary A mediocrity so bland I'm hysteric Enormity in normalcy's highest gear Worked out so hard and never got abs Without an ear my regular cannot hear I'm the base tested against in labs An everyday, workaday, 10 of a kind Fantastically, head over heels habitual Frequency, ooze from me, for oddness I pined This middle of the road, uniform fool An average in math I lack sum of the fun My highest point is the peak of just typical If my usual started with "un", not a prefix of none This run of the mill status is biblical I'm routinely symmetrical time and again Burst at the seams in familiarity A dullery so wild it verges on zen Like a quietness without any clarity I've searched the great depths of the known Looked for an in but found not a trace For my explicable or scrutable down to the bone Destined to be dazzlingly commonplace.

Hopefully you're not writing about yourself, you're one of the first people I followed because you have such unique style. As soon as you advised me you were a cheese ball I was hooked haha!
