One can experience a poetic feeling. ) embodies the remote artistic conception in Wang Wei's poems.
The works of Guillaume Apollinaire, a famous French poet, are also a model of "painting in poetry and poetry in painting". Different from Wang Wei, Apollinaire really wrote poems into complex and beautiful pictures.
Apollinaire coined the name "le calligramme", which means poetry presented in the form of pictures, not traditional poetry. He is regarded as a pioneer of surrealism.

To put it simply, Apollinaire created a surprising and even surprising effect through non-traditional verbal relations, so he was regarded as a pioneer of surrealism.
Gu Long and the Heart of the Mirror
Take Gu Long and the Mirror as an example. This poem is divided into three parts: a heart, a crown pattern and an ellipse representing a mirror. Each pattern consists of a sentence.
Take "Crown" as an example, this sentence should be linked with "Les Rois qui meurent tour a tour renaissent au coeur des poetes".
Apollinaire set five capital letters in the first four words, arranged horizontally, and the rest of the words were placed below the capital letters in the first line.
But in the face of a life full of loopholes, Apollinaire still loves his heart, just as he conveyed the belief in Heart: "My heart is like an upside-down fireworks."

E cummings is an outstanding American modernist poet and painter in the 20th century. Most of his poems have no punctuation marks and capital letters. Deeply influenced by Dadaism (Dadai ***) and Cubism (Cubi ***), he boldly reformed the form and language of poetry in his poetry creation and created a brand-new Cummings-style poetry model.
Cummings attached great importance to the visual effect of language and tried his best to apply the aesthetic principles of images to poetry. In a letter to the editor, he once said: My biggest concern is that every poem and every painting should be kept as it is. For example, the following is a famous poem:
In fact, this poem inserts a fallen leaf into the word loneliness. The poet took these four words apart and arranged them in a vertical column, giving people a picture of a leaf falling alone, showing a wonderful effect.
A leaf falls lonely.

Ezra pound is a famous American poet and writer, and the main representative of Imagist poetry.
Pound's "A Station in the Subway" has only two short lines, but once it was published, it caused a sensation in the whole European and American poetry circles. He once wrote in 19 14:
"Three years ago in Paris, I got off the subway car from the station. Suddenly, I saw a beautiful face, then another, then a beautiful child's face, and then a beautiful woman. I've been trying to find words that can express my feelings all day, but I can't find any words that I think can match or be as lovely as that sudden feeling. That night ... when I was still looking, I suddenly found an expression. It's not that I found some words, but that an equation appeared. ..... Not in words, but with many small color dots. ..... This kind of' poetic imagery' is a form of superposition, that is, one concept is superimposed on another concept. "
In a speech
But there is a little color. This is just a "model"
"or there is hardly a pattern.
If by "pattern" you mean something with "repetition".
"Half a year later, I wrote a poem half as short as that one, and a year later, I wrote a poem similar to Japanese haiku."
haiku
A seven-line poem, usually with 17 syllables.
Written in the traditional Japanese style
Haiku, a traditional Japanese poem, consists of three lines and one song, usually with 17 syllables.
This poem is a typical example of using images as narrative language. There are only two short sentences in the whole poem, which can't even form a complete sentence, but it shows a picture with rich colors and vivid composition, which is quite a sense of "the old vine is faint and the bridge is flowing".
In the subway station
Phantom of these faces in the crowd;
Petals are on a wet beach.
Black branches.
Between people, the ghosts of these faces;
Petals on wet black branches.
(translated by Yu Guangzhong)
