there once was an old man named Bill
who liked to brag about his stamina to women for a thrill
one night it was said
with Molly he was limp in bed
Bill said I must have gotten a generic blue pill

Eye a generic happy go lucky arachnid hoped for a miracle

Eye (a generic happy go lucky arachnid) hope(d) for a miracle

Harken and cue lyrics to All I Need Is a Miracle
Song by Mike + The Mechanics.

Aye, a quizzical hunky-dory
spied re: anomaly doth attest
forsooth to see himself as a mister
re: wordsmith, with whimsical
much about ado about nothing to write,
who hoped for a miracle
within the blink of

One generic baby boomer, a garden variety sexagenarian

One generic baby boomer, (a garden variety sexagenarian)...
offers his interpretation of critical race theory

I, (an articulate, charming, domesticated, 
erudite, friendly, genteel, humorous, intelligent,
kind, learned, male, albeit modest – married) 
with freshly clipped formerly gnarly toenails
discounts the popularized myth
encompassing world wide
webbed historical events
despite being taught Northern Europeans
owned preeminent supreme paradigm,
whereby hegemony instituted,
enforced, and blanketed
upon conquered peoples.

Blissful

Generic Germane Groveling Guy Still Wallows In Weltschmerz

Yours truly does readily confess
the following poem crafted more or less
approximately a year ago,
when coronavirus (COVID-19)
wrought havoc creating global mess
when panic against collective temple did press
a feeling of melancholy and world-weariness.

Along luscious green acres banks steep grade
(in close proximity to
Petticoat Junction) naturemade
Perkiomen Valley watershed,
verdant landscape displayed
yours truly, (a garden variety
proto human) arrayed

solely donning birthday suit,

Generic Germane Guy Wallows In Weltschmerz

Along luscious green acres banks steep grade
(in close proximity to 
Petticoat Junction) naturemade
Perkiomen Valley watershed,
verdant landscape displayed
yours truly, (a garden variety
proto human) arrayed

solely donning birthday suit,
whose fifty plus shades hair gone grayed,
i.e. one infinitesimal measly mortal
whiles away hours, laid
back days of his life as
the world wide web turns
comprising second decade
of twenty first century

civilization, where

Generic Heartwarming Christmas Movie

It seems that minutes after Halloween,
before we’ve even seen the first bits of snow,
the Christmas movies are flooding our screens,
and I think we know how they’ll all go.

Start with an actress that’s half-forgotten,
who in teen films once took off her clothes,
or maybe someone from and old sit-com,
the kind all the critics pretend to loathe.

Then start

Mr Epic Generic and Dj Cliche

Derek and Eric said I'm Generic, 
a weird name but I'll wear it,
I'm cool, it's epic, Generic's so original 
like the South Park ginger kid,
"gingers have souls bluur".
 
MC Generic the genius generates 
with DJ Cliche real name Lee Shay 
from Vichy, genre Generic-king, 
begin the journey blurting my name, 
"Generic Jackson" they say,

Generic Greeting

thinking with my
head voice while
speaking with
my speaking voice
while texting with
my sign language
finger tips that often
play chords on my
string strung wooden
box that occupies
my singing voice
all happening all
at the same time
as elevator musak
in a different time
signature not
knowing if i'm
going up or
down or stuck
on one floor

Her Generic Genuine

Thought the pieces wouldn’t come together? Rewind back to what I said in the beginning. You told me as well. Genuine but generic right? You don’t get many points playing a fool for a fool. I was the jester wearing the crown of no king it has always been tin foil. There’s no intermission it

Genuinely Generic

Love no more a cold smile
Touch never again the reach beyond 
Far has become close
Yet not close enough 
No one is “normal”
Everyone pretends 
Most attempts to conform every idea of similar 
Difference is Fear’s shadow 
All have run, away, away, away 
Eyes drown more than once in jacuzzi temperature tears
Tongues fail to bench press teeth
Silence

Generic Love For The Bakery Couple


butcher went to bed with his cookie cutter
and baker opened her oven for his flutter
a recipe mix and bake
generic love to shake
dough rises bringing cake mold to shutter

Generic Poem Title

Breathe in.
Out.
A chore for yourself.
Lungs fill slow, 
Too slow.
You're impatient.

Don't exhale.
Hold it in.
Let the breathe become 
part of you.

The only clean part of
you.

Hold it in until
hazy.
Dry lungs,
don't fall down.
Let go now...

Breathe out.
In.

Generic Oppression Poem

Oppressed by you, your state, your religion
So you think you good, kind and Superior
But I find you  cruel, arrogant and callous
But that is just in my view, what do I know?

You control the language that describes pain
But there is no for me in its grid, or how I feel
My soul is ripped from my

Generic Minds

generic minds listen to generic music
have generic thoughts that are unknowingly abusive
watch generic things talk about generic things
gee this generic *****is spreading like a disease
better get your flu shot 
thats what they said to me
a suicidal vaccine 
a subliminal killing spree
its contagious and the outrageous
thing about it is that the people are blind in an

Insert Generic Title Here

You beg to breath in my emotions
To get high off of my thoughts
So sure it's something you can handle
I'm not so confident in the strength of your "lungs"
For the term, "smoking you out" is a very great understatement
I've considered letting it all out
But I can't get the image of you choking on my insanity out
