Dean

Dean

He was called Mean Dean
By the school children

Mean Dean was the name

He Accepted

He excelled at the 

Hot hair cut

For any boys who

Misbehaved

Mean Dean

Died a little

Bit

That day

My

Friend

Paul

Died

Losing an Eye

My Uncle Ken
Lost an eye in an
Industrial 
Accident

My grandpa
Lost his hearing
Working the
Mines

What did I lose because of my labor? 

My heart?

My soul?

Nah

Amputation is involuntary

You just lose the limb

Things ain’t what they used to be

 A flute 

Some woodwinds

An announcer 

A fifteen year old 

Pianist

What is

Nonet

A poem that gradually reduces

Is called a nonet. You would think

That each line would be shorter

Than the previous one

And sometimes that is

The case, but words

Are tricky,

Complex

Beasts
