�Empty Pockets�

The poet reaches into his pocket,
one where new words are kept,
to find the pocket empty,
and he somberly remembers,
it has been for quite sometime.

So he heads to the closet,
to search all the pockets there,
but all are equally empty,
nothing but thinning air.

Desperate for a speedy solution,
he searches the jackets and coats,
occasionally he finds lost articles,
but nothing resembling a word.

Finally there are no pockets left,
no new words left to be found,
and the poet�s pockets so deep,
are empty where once profound.
