The place in the creative space of poetry has always been a focus of sight, and a subject that occupies the pioneers and scholars of this art, who have counted the place as an integral part of the identity of both the poetic text and the poet alike. The concept of ‘place’ is not exclusive to the physical space or geographical space in which events take place but an important element that demonstrates the relationship between man and place, identity, belonging, and the origins that bind man to the past and present, and the characters with their concerns, feelings, pains and hopes. In my talk about the place in the poem, I do not deal with these concepts only; I actually Igo beyond it to talk about the space that has geometric dimensions over which words are arranged, how these words are designed, the relationship of blackness to whiteness above this visual space, or what we might call the visual formation of the poem. This study seeks to discuss the features of the thematic and visual location in two selected poems of the poet Anwar Saba, to monitor the relationship between the spatial expressions mentioned in each poem and their visual spatial formation, and how they serve or complement each other, and their visual spatial formation, and how they serve or complement each other.
