The young man's name is Qing Wu, and his poems are dubbed "nonsense poems" by contemporary people. Why do people call his poems that? Let's take a look at a poem he wrote about clouds. We can see that it is very different from traditional poetry. Without the so-called phonology and melody, people seem to have no connotation and depth to describe it with words that are easy to understand or even too repetitive. Maybe this is a realm we can't understand. Many people lamented that the young poet was too bold.
Others laugh at me for being crazy, and I laugh at others for not being able to see through it. Many people think that this young poet is just grandstanding, uneducated and just talking nonsense, but Qing Wu loved reading since he was a child, and even gave up his studies in order to study. Later, he was admitted to a university. So far, he has written seven books of poetry and a novel, which are poems that he does not pay attention to rhythm. Besides being refreshing, it is also difficult for modern people to accept such nonsense poems. Indeed, his maverick writing style is not in line with the traditional cognitive habits of contemporary people on poetry.
There is still a big gap between Qing Wu's new poems and his old ones. His poems and novels caused great controversy on the Internet. Many people think that he has created a new theme of poetry. His writing accords with the loneliness, decadence and pressure of contemporary young people. Maybe he is really talented, but his poems don't meet our aesthetic standards. Perhaps our appreciation level is not high, and his poems have lost their traditional rhythm and aesthetic feeling, which is greatly reduced.
With the rapid development of contemporary society, many new things have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and many old things have been critically inherited. We should know "critically inherit and innovate". Traditional culture is our root, and we can't abandon what our ancestors left behind. We should consciously learn and inherit good traditional culture and understand its connotation. Poetry is the wealth of China's ancient literature. After years of inheritance, we should also know how to preserve its essence and respect its historical significance when inheriting.
