Abstract

Poetry is due to new combinations of thought and process of metaphorical innovative metaphors that can nourish both the imagination and the salience of the word. Contemporary poets in the field of metaphorical language have taken different approaches to confront the mind of the reader with unexpected challenges, including challenging images that have complicated contemporary poetry in the complexity of the word image network. It's metaphorical or paradoxical. The findings of this study show what role these metaphorical contradictions play in arousing the mind of the reader into thought and inquiry. The author of the descriptive-analytical method, citing the examples of contemporary poets, has come to the conclusion that, first, how have contemporary poets combined metaphorical images with the paradox? The author also strives to make the reader more aware of this literary trick in modern metaphorical imagery of contemporary poetry, and to enrich his mind with the most technical artistic highlighting, which is the most artistic tool of imagination (metaphor) with the most ambiguous poetic image (paradox).
