The Cat in the Mask

I started this a while back, probably during the dark times.

The sun did not shine
It was too wet to play.
So we sat in the house
All that cold covid day

I sat there with Sally
We sat there, we two.
We were all out of TP
So we didn’t want to poo.

Not allowed to go out
To a store or the mall
We just sat in the house.
We did nothing at all.

So all we could do was to
Sit
Sit
Sit
Sit
And without any TP
We tried not to shit.

And then something went BUMP!
How that bump made us jump!
We looked!
Then we saw him step in on the mat!
We looked!
And we saw him!
The cat in the mask!
And he said to us,
‘Why do you sit there like that?’
‘I know it is wet
And covid’s contagious,
But we can have
Lots of good fun that’s outrageous!’

‘I know some good games we could play.’
Said the cat.
‘I know some new tricks,’
Said the cat in the mask.
‘A lot of good tricks.
I will show them to you.
You mother won’t even know if you pood.’

Then sally and I
Did not know what to do.
Our mother was in the hospital
In an ICU

But our fish said, ‘no! No!’
Make that cat go away!
Tell that cat in the mask
You do NOT want to play
He should not be here
He could have the 19
He should not be here
There’s no way that he’s clean!
