He narrates his inner feeling with such words and dictums that make listeners or readers ecstatic. In other words, the poet's sore heart thinks world in a way that others view it in the same way.

He leaves his confused readers free in the wander land, with full of doubt and distrust. He repeatedly cries out that he has come to this world unwillingly and will pass away unwillingly. Most of these ambiguous and complex queries are also found in the work of contemporary Arab poet, Ilia Abu Mazi.
