IN  MY  POCKET

  
What’s the one thing I find
in my pocket the most?
 
Paper.
 
Obviously - it’s paper of course.
 
Names of people. Phone numbers.
Addresses. Names of books. The
first three lines of the first draft of a poem.
 
Tissues. Questions. Reminders.
Calling cards. Okay, I’m stuck in the past.
In your pocket, you have only your iPhone.
