Controversial games and tricks in the field of language of postmodern sonnet is what has been examined in present study. We have tried, avoiding prejudice, to study the course of language and its games that goes sometimes to the border of waggery and dysphasia. The noticeable point is that the poet confronts language differently in the postmodern way of thinking, and the researcher faces the overcoming of language and form on meaning and content, respectively. In this view,"language" does not serve meaning definitely, but language and aesthetics can be the ultimate goal of the author, what does not coincide with the aesthetic criteria of traditional scholars. But the most important question about the pathology of postmodern sonnet becomes: "How justified is the abnormality or norm-confronting of postmodern poets and their departure from language rules?" It has been tried, in present research, to study the common language games in Iran's postmodern sonnets to find the answer of above mentioned question.
