Appreciation of the Poems of Karl Steinberg, the Author of Fog

Karl carl sandburg's poem Fog is a typical representative work of Imagism. The poet uses the image of a cat to express fog, because both are * * *. Poets use tangible cats to express abstract, ethereal, empty and imperceptible fog. In this way, the virtual feeling becomes the real feeling, and the abstraction becomes the concrete.

Fog not only symbolizes the rapid changes of modern life and the mystery of modern cities, but also symbolizes the desolate scene of western society. We can also think that this poem shows the contradiction between man and nature, and between man and animals. In the creation of the short poem Fog, he gave up cadence and did not quote classics, but created a mysterious and silent illusion space with simple words and simple artistic conception. Moreover, this work is very imaginative.
