My Grandfather Joe was a watchmaker
And, by all accounts, quite skilled at it but
Since he died has taken all sorts of jobs
Just to keep his hand in. His latest role
Was an unspeaking part in a poem
Set in a restaurant kitchen. He auditioned
For the parts of the cat and the grease-fire
But was given a bent spoon and cast
As a mustached cook with a bandana.
