Heart Attack Poem by Rehan Hyder

Heart Attack

Rating: 5.0


A stone’s throw from the place of my diurnal affinity
from everything but God

This place so near you that
The wind covered me with pollens
From your lacquered
piety and prudence

Here, a 36 year old creep
Had the audacity to steal
From his ageing father
His well nursed asset -
“A heart attack”
Stole and scuttled away

This seems so powerful. The words themselves are beautiful put together and that last stanza just hits you with a blast! Hugs Anna xxx
