These changes have been revealed in the deep and sophisticated thinking which have been featured clearly in the images for aging in Al Arji’s poetry.

These images represent the voice of freedom and the metaphysic inspiration that can penetrate the unconscious sentiments of the human being and recreate his/her picture of reality.
