How to generate Poisson distribution?

I am working on a project and I want to generate events in Poisson distribution form, the "event node" doesn't support Poisson, could you help me Please.

The node should do what you want if the distribution is set to "exponential." The terms "exponential" and "Poisson" refer to different aspects of the same thing. For a Poisson process, the intervals between events are given by an exponential distribution, while the number of events observed in a specified time interval is given by a Poisson distribution. The documentation and edit dialog use the word "exponential," because this is technically correct. It might be helpful to refer to a Poisson process in the documentation.

Thank you Dear.
