The Generic “He”
Please! Acquaint thyself
With the generic “he”!
You do not, so, exclude the she
Who may among addressees be.
It’s that singular person in English, you see,
When referenced by means of a pronoun!
So please! Don’t speak like a clown
Casting grammar rules to the ground!
A person is a person, no matter
What kind of slang he may chatter,
But if it is English you would speak,
Be neither barbarian nor geek!
A person’s a person no matter how small
Though he know no grammar at all!
May not like to walk and prefer to crawl,
But he’s either a he or a she;
A lie does not make him what he’d rather be.
