Abstract
Semantic sign is a precise tool in the service of studying the mechanism of formation and production of meaning. Two important types, cognitive and emotional, cause the production of meaning in the flow of literary discourse. The poem "Cookie Doll" by Forough Farrokhzad is one of his relatively short poems in the form of new poetry with his own stylistic features in the collection of "Rebellion" and is one of his most prominent feminist poems. Since the discourse that governs this poem is built on the basis of extensive and pressing communication, this article tries to investigate the tension-emotional system in this poem and the mechanisms of formation, production, and continuity of emotional meaning and interaction using the analytical-descriptive method. Explain it with other meanings and also explain how signs-meanings share in the production of meaning, and also by examining the sensory-perceptual characteristics of the poem, show how the emotional and tense relationship of the elements involved in the mechanisms of producing emotional discourse has worked to stabilize the intended meaning of the speaker (poet). The findings of the research show that "discursive position", "discursive connection and disconnection", "verb effect", "perspective creation", "rhythm" and "tension" have created new places and times in the heart of the discourse and made the range of poetry wider. The relationships between the signs of the poem show that the poet has established various strategies and tactics for the act of "sitting passively", the most important of which is the emotionalization of the discourse space.
