Summary/Abstract: The derived models provided and used by postwar poets play an essential part in the ''grammar of poetry" through the interference of language levels. The poetic derivatives with the prefix des- often "associate" with an antonymic repetition resulting in lexical contrasts. Such derivatives suggest equivocal sensations to the meaning of a determination by using lexical parallelism and analogy, being created by different types of derivation. The analysis of poetic derivatives from the perspective of word formation joins the pun specific to creative lyricism.
