^I thought it was part of the poem and didn't figure out that it was the name of the poet but why stick it in the middle? surely it'd be better to write it at the end? (at least it'd be easier for people like me!)
its indeed both. its a part of the poem as well as the poet's name. as much as I know, usually in the last stanza of the poem, the poets refer to themselves... I dont exactly remember what it's called but I think its either called a 'maqta' or a 'matla'... the other being the first verse of the poem (which is supposed to have a different rhyme scheme than the rest of the poem...)
