Deep the mud grew in my mind.
I'm one whose muse was so unkind
Let a blockage of knowledge appear
that left my talent behind
The mud piled up encasing good sense
Progressive disease made me dense
and when Parkinson's became severe
drop in my talent was immense
Parkinson's turned my writing to sleaze
slowed me down, made me freeze
Please, don't you get this disease
It ruins your life by degrees
I average two typos per line
I correct them to look fine
Finished write I hope will shine
After a long typing time
So that's when Tiki Cat took over
Since then I've been rolling in clover
I dictate and Tiki types over
as I lie back eating candies by Stover
Tiki does claim to be the main one
to do all the thinking, have all the fun
She has always the writing spun
Tiki Cat really is the main one
Skrivms sienzlaow sjilshe rhsld crap
Akd sieb dlivxd tjisvn si alfhebnx bull
Kejsivls vldif vhld sa vipee vhe jerk
Meksw soe bosqep suiy weyan poop
Tiki Cat, what is this you get
Another spat is on tap, you bet
This you get with a pagan for a pet
Haven't figured out this cat yet
