False Pockets Poem by Bill Grace
False Pockets
I grew up
before the age of false economy
before fashion’s invention
of the false pocket.
I have learned to check.
What may look like a pocket
may be only that
a look,
but you have to look
to check
to know,
if what looks like a pocket
is a pocket.
POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I believe the reaction was influenced by the story of Plato's cave and the images on the wall but the immediate poem was inspired during a visit to the women's section of Walmart.
