Charles Simic was born in Yugoslavia in 1938 and left his country for America at the age of sixteen. He is one of the most popular and influential American modern poets. His poems are full of mysterious and dark images which give the readers clear impressions of his world. But we cannot find what his poems mean very well. His linguistic ability, consisting of two languages such as Serbo-Croatian and English, gives his poems the uniqueness which comes from the process of translating pre-linguistic concepts, which are moving aimlessly in a place called maternal silence, into the expressions. Temporary encounters of signifiers and signified produce a series of words there and the poet assembles them into a poem with satisfaction of approximate identification between words and mind. The loose connection makes his poem modern and attractive. This paper examines Simic's poetics and his poetic world through his unique idea for maternal silence.
