This is one of my most recent poems, inspired by a young man that came into the ER where I work...Help me out with this, can you tell what he did? I'm not sure if the poetic situation is very clear, so all help is appreciated!

Blue Jeans

Blue Jeans

crumpled on the floor in a

plastic bag reek of dirt and

sweat. A brown belt looped

around their neck.

Sitting back in the quiet of this

madness they wait to be

recovered. She's called twice to say

she'll be in to pick them up.

He searches for his

glasses on the bedroom floor, the broken

light fixture overhead pitching

an electronic scream.

He misses his

blue jeans.
