Thank you for posting the poems. My uncle lost an eye in WWI. While not as bad a loss as an arm. He still had trouble finding work or a regular job, they wanted people with two eyes. He was asked to be a deputy sheriff, but when asked about his wound, he had to tell them about his eye. So he had to return to being a farmer.
