Hajaya's poetic language is more accessible than that of many contemporary Bedouin poets because of its "subject matter and the more 'educated' language that goes with it, though quite a lot of the phraseology, stock metaphors, and compositional elements survive from the older model.”[1] Hajaya writes on poetic topics traditional in Arabic poetry, like love (ghazal), the elegy (ritha') and praise (madh), as well as on topics of international significance, such as the Iran-Iraq War, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the US invasion and occupation of Iraq, and the Syrian Civil War.
