Abstract

Modern poetry comes to use narration and all literature technicalities. modern poetry is rooted from these elements to make the text flexible and open to new ideas. For expressing themselves, the poets  have used prose poem which is based on narrative and it's techniques. Habib al-sāmer, an Iraqi poet, is one of the poets who have utilized narrative elements in their poems. This study is an attempt to sift narrative structure in this ode and to explain the effect of this structure in reaching the technical depth of inductive point. Too, we worked on the narrative structure in this ode by zooming on a group of elements that formed the narrative text structure. That is reachable through narrative shows which can be found in Cronotopy atmosphere, personification, polyphony, narrator, and incident, and explanation, cinematic pick. At the end we concluded that our poet in this special ode went beyond poetic formats and took a narrative language based on interpretation. He used these narrative elements to create an open text based on other literary genres for expressing thought and sense. Also, he used a modern method in line with modern time and its thought and technical changes.
