prosing
Speaking in monotone
Prosing is talking or writing in a dull, tedious manner—going on at length without saying anything interesting.
The word treats prose as the opposite of poetry: flat, unadorned, lacking spark.
Someone prosing on about their day is boring you with mundane details: He kept prosing about office politics until I found an excuse to leave.
