! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! She Knows My Name Poem by Rehan Hyder

(……) I love you and love your absence.....


You know my name... you do?
Blend it into sweetest
of the terms of endearment
you might use tonight with
your spouse, sibling or child....
whisper it around
your conquered territory of sink
... let is drown in the rumble
of running water
and finally whisper it under your
lover's endowed moan....
I'm yearning to eat
the sweet swollen peaches
of my name
from the orchard of your mouth
