The purpose of this paper is to attempt the consilience of semiotics and cognitive poetics interactively, but at the same time, to show what the semiotic system and semantic structure of Jeong ji-yong`s text is in keeping the parallax view. In order to clarify that process of analysing, it was approached in Jeong`s “Glass Window-1” and “Glass Window-2”. That is not only why ``window`` brings out some attributes as a semiotic system, but it includes the principle of cognitive metaphor being able to contain topicality and situational-ity. First, the semiotic system of “Glass Window-1” was approached in focusing topicality of poetic words. Based on the topicality, moreover, a semantic shifting process of ``figure-ground`` was derived from relationship with speaker and hearer as actors. Second, the semiotic system of “Glass Window-2” was approached in focusing some situational scripts evoked by texts. Consequently, these scripts of “Glass Window-2” were the situational scripts linked with anxiety, thirst, solitude, etc. and acting in that scripts repeatedly came out as well. As a result, one common feature revealed from these approaches of two poems is that ``glass window`` frequently used in Jeong`s writings functions first as a separator between subject and object, then as a counter-separator.
