Using various types of folk literature, including folk poems is the main feature of Houshang Moradi Kermani 's works, as the use of folk poems and satire are some of the important aspects of the author's style. Accordingly, in the present study, the representation of Kermani's folk poems is analyzed based on Van Leeuwen's theory of discourse analysis in six satirical fiction works. A descriptive-analytical method has been used for the study. Van Leeuwen's view is based on a study of social agents. According to exclusion and inclusion components of this article, it was found that the main agents of folk poems in Houshang Moradi Kermani's satirical fictions are usually mentioned and in most cases, the villagers are active agents. People with more urban origin besides children and adolescents often have more passive roles. In some cases, women play a passive role while in other cases an active one. The use of impersonalization, personalization, and determination components are also observed in the imagination of folk poem which determine the author's emphasis on the role of villagers in preserving folk poems.
