The  research deals with resistance poetry and the inclinations that may emerge in the poet's psyche and manifest in his or her poetry. Moreover, the research depends on harnessing the “poetic self"  and the “other" as a scale to measure the credibility of their resistance poetry. The succinct account of the analogy between the poets of resistance who are conflicting on the main cause reveals the individual's view of his poetic “self" and how to reconcile with the “other". On the other hand, the research also proposes exile and diaspora as major factors  that may drive a poet to start writing resistance poetry. Poetry is the origin of literature and has been considered a kind of resistance to some defects in the human nature since the ancient times. It is not a new branch of literature since it has been established as a medium of expression for a long time.
