In all languages, a word is recognized as the core term, serving as the foundation for other words that maintain the same meaning while appearing in new forms based on the perspective of the speaker, writer, or poet. These variations are referred to as marked words. Wadī‛ Sa‛ādah and Hafez Mousavi are two poets whose poems contain numerous similarly marked words in terms of both structure and meaning, to the extent that the use of these words can be considered a literary trick of the poems of these two poets. This study, which employs a descriptive analytical method, aims to examine the structure of the highlighted words in the poems of Sa‛ādah and Mousavi, as well as to articulate the most significant meanings of these words in relation to the American School of Comparative Literature. An analysis of the prose poems by these two poets reveals that, in addition to their sentences, they present the highlighted words in descriptive and supplementary combinations, utilizing straightforward language that is accessible and uncomplicated. The highlighted words in their poems are either derived from societal conditions or inspired by the beauty of nature. Consequently, both poets employ techniques such as simile and metaphor to craft meaningful words and phrases that occasionally attribute human characteristics to inanimate objects and elements of nature, while at other times, they visualize the impossible through historical references. This approach facilitates an engaging experience for readers by transforming their works into open texts. The predominant theme of the highlighted words in the poems of these two poets is the portrayal of the suffering and pain experienced by contemporary individuals.
