Deep Pockets by Jasen Sousa

Deep Pockets


He is finally
back home around the way, I
am glad to see him.

He is mad happy
to see familiar faces,
the same faces who

sold him his poison.
How do they look to him now,
knowing who they are?

Friends who only care 
about the final sale, cash
exchanged for his soul,

which they still keep in
their pockets with lint, pills and

wrinkled dollar bills.
