Similar to many phenomena in life, there are also "seemingly unreasonable" situations in literature. Chen Ziang's "Youzhou Tower" is clearly only five or six words, but it happened that it was listed as a seven-character poem family. In fact, readers can only find a reasonable side from the "unreasonable" appearance if they develop the study habit of in-depth inquiry and are not covered by clouds when reading poems. This undoubtedly adds a different flavor to our poetry tasting process.
Chen Ziang s You Zhou Tower;
No one can see the ancient wisdom of the ancient king, only those wise men who can't see the afterlife can see it.
Only the boundless universe, boundless, can't stop the tears full of sadness.
Two sentences of five words, two sentences of six words, not one sentence of seven words, but the preface of seven-word ancient poetry selected by Sun Zhu, a retired scholar in Hengtang, is really hard to find.
"Before me, where was the past era? Behind me, where are the future generations? "Starting with spoken English, it seems to blurt out. On the special occasion of Youzhou TV, the word "ancients" contains the stories of Yan Zhaowang and Le Yi. That was the winner, and Chen Ziang himself was the loser. History and reality collide, how much longing, how much sadness!
"I think of heaven and earth, there is no limit, there is no end, I am alone, and my tears fall." The last two sentences are still spoken, which makes the whole article go in one go. What does it feel like to leave a lonely person in endless time and space? Is it resentment or admiration? Resign or protest? What should we do next? Chen Ziang's ambition depends on it, and this feeling is obviously radical.
It should be noted that China's ancient poetics has accumulated profound experience of "using sound". Poets understand that five-character poems are relatively peaceful, while seven-character poems are more radical. Whenever the situation is complicated, the feelings are deep and the mood is gloomy, especially when it is cynical, praising or lashing, the poet chooses to write in seven words.
It must have been a big problem at that time: this is a must-have poem. However, if you choose the five-character ancient style, it will be very uneven and therefore inappropriate. Choose six words? Six-character has congenital defects and is inappropriate. So, I had to choose seven words very reluctantly. According to? It is the agitation of this poem that is very close to the seven-character poem.
