Playing with words ~ yes and know

Music from Words ~ by Marc Jampole, 2007, poetry

"Yes and Know" is the title of a poem on page 34 of this book of poetry by Marc Jampole.  I love when poets play with words, mixing up words that we "know" (I couldn't resist saying it). Here are the first two lines:

Yes me don't yes me
know me don't know me

I don't need to define "No" or "Know" for you.  I simply wanted to share the unusual way this poet used "Know" where we might expect "No" to be paired, as usual, with "Yes."

Marc, the poet, is the nephew of my neighbor Gail, who let me borrow her copy of the book.
