DAILY POEMS

Unfluencer

Limerick

There once was a girl named Obscure

Who vowed to get famous, yes sir

Like a Slinky gone spiral

Her posts all went viral

Still, her #van was more famous than her

This limerick was inspired by reading my 100th article on Medium regarding Van Life.

I’m jealous — my generation had crappy beer and kids on milk cartons. These kids today have Amber alerts and microbreweries. We had cargo vans with serial killers, but Gen Z has espresso machines inside their custom rigs.

These tricked out vans inspire even unpoetic, unfluencers like me to to rave about the good life on the road.

I am not social media savvy, don’t own an espresso machine, and seethe with envy. If I could only master texting with my thumbs, maybe I could join them on the road. I am green with envy that a whole generation is living in their vans and making a living posting pics of themselves, with their nimble thumbs.

I guess I wish them well. In the end, anyone who can make a decent life living on the road is someone to be admired.

Maybe one of these days I’ll get out there and write a poem every day while gazing out my back doors at a mountain range or an ocean shore.
