What this book is about .
Devotion to another poet's work
The narrow line between a prayer and a poem
Love written at its most unguarded
Finding the divine in fairly ordinary rooms
About the Author
Mahnoor Rehan is a poet from Rawalpindi, known for her infamous gol chashme and her awful habit of sending hand-typed poems to her friends on brown paper bags. She often leaves poetic footnotes in the margins of her current reads. You can find her with her nose in a book at the loud cafes of Islamabad quietly sipping hot cocoa while enjoying the works of Edna st. Vincent Millay and Virginia Woolf. Her poems have been published in The Missing Slate, Pandemonium Journal, and forthcoming Aleph Review.
Read a little of the book.
I can build empires with my words
But all I do is dig graves
And turn them into— silent waves
I wait as I watch my body
Turn into grains of salt
I tend to the wounds
Before I turn them into something magical
I tend to the wounds
Before I turn them into poetry
I’ve been meeting god
In my sweatpants
Because I’ve got prayers stuck
Between the palms of my broken hands
I’m turning them into soft soft poems
