Premonition
I am surrounded by a vast space like a flag.
I feel like the wind is blowing from all directions, I have to endure it,
Nothing is happening below:
The door is still softly closed, and there is still no sound from the chimney ;
The windows have not shaken yet, and the dust is still heavy.
I recognized the storm and was as excited as the ocean.
I stretched out and fell back into myself,
threw myself out again and was alone
in the great storm.
Reine Maria Rilke (1875~1926) Austrian poet, the greatest German poet of the 20th century. Although Rilke's poetry is full of lonely, painful emotions and pessimistic and nihilistic thoughts, his artistic attainments are very high. It not only displays the musical beauty and sculptural beauty of poetry, but also expresses some difficult-to-express contents, expands the field of artistic expression of poetry, and has a huge impact on the development of modern poetry.
The storm the poet foresees may actually refer to a storm in nature, or it may have another metaphor. Talking about poetry, it has an extraordinary and extraordinary spirit when read.
