Why do you want to learn the flat and even meter?

China's poetry can be divided into modern poetry and ancient poetry.

Ancient poems include ancient poems and epigrams. Wait until the metrical poem is finished. Only ancient poems are said here.

Ancient poetry can be divided into two categories: ancient poetry and modern poetry. The dividing standard of these two kinds of poems is flat and even meter.

Therefore, all poems (quatrains, rhymes and verses) that abide by the Pingwa rules are modern poems. After the Pingwa rules were invented in the Tang Dynasty, they were called "modern poems" to distinguish them from works with style before the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, when the Tang poems and previous works were sorted out, they could not be called "modern poetry", so they were renamed "modern poetry", and this title has been used until today.

Poems that don't follow the rules of leveling are ancient poems, also called "ancient style".

Since archaism and metrical poetry go hand in hand, why should we learn the even knowledge of metrical poetry?

Actually, it's not necessary

It's like sailing in the sea and fighting the wind and waves. It's very comfortable. Suddenly I saw a port, brightly lit and bustling. Shall we go ashore?

Actually, it's not necessary You can still live freely in the sea of Wang Yang.

But civilization is passed down on the shore. Those who go ashore, update their equipment on the shore, and then enter the sea to compete with you. Who do you think is more handsome?
