This study explored the poetry of Daud Kamal within the setting of modernist literary theory, focusing on his opposing of realism and traditional poetic conventions. Through a qualitative analysis of Kamal's work, employing close reading as the primary strategy, the study examines his innovative use of imagery, symbolism, and non-linear structure. Kamal's poetry embodies the experimental ethos of modernism, as proven by his subjective interpretation of the world and neglecting formal traditions. By rejecting realism, embracing ambiguity, and defying traditional forms, Kamal's poetry represents a significant commitment to the development of poetic expression within the modernist development.
