Modern poetry, also known as "vernacular poetry", is a kind of poetry. [1] Modern poetry can be traced back to the late Qing Dynasty. Compared with classical poetry, modern poetry is free in form and rich in connotation. Image management is more important than rhetoric application, which completely breaks through the characteristics of "gentle and sincere, mourning without complaining" in ancient poetry, and puts more emphasis on free, open and straightforward statements and communication between "sensible and intangible". Modern poetry is free in form and rich in connotation, and image management is more important than rhetoric application. Compared with ancient poetry, although they all feel things and reflect the soul, they completely break through the characteristics of ancient poetry, which are "gentle and sincere, with no complaints", and emphasize more on free and open, straightforward statements and intangible communication between reason and reason. The mainstream of modern poetry is free verse. Free verse is the product of the May 4th New Culture Movement, which uses vernacular in form, breaking the shackles of old-style poetry, and mainly reflects new life and expresses new ideas in content.
