Scenography, as a mechanism of theatrical formation, derives its effectiveness through the employment of a number of plastic elements, as the scenograph attempts to take care of the visual and audio effects to demarcate scenic shots. Scenography as a theatrical art went beyond the stage and reached modern poetic texts, until the task of employing it became the responsibility of poets, including the Omani poet Saif Al-Rahbi, whose poetic productions we are about to study according to the descriptive-analytical approach. The outcome of our study was as follows: The visual elements in Al-Rahbi’s texts are stripped of their plastic meanings and take on suggestive connotations, through which the poet embodies alienation and class opposition. Most of his scenes contain pictures of realistic daily scenes, in which he presents the suffering of characters who share the same pain and alienation.
