Shu Ting and the School of Misty Poetry

Shu Ting grew up in ten years of turmoil, and her family changes, the hard life of teenagers and the great social turmoil in China left a deep impression on her. Most of her poems are lyric short poems, in which "there is both the pain of addiction and the joy of awakening". There are deep thoughts on the times and longing for a better future, both faint sadness and warm talk. Her poems are sincere, euphemistic and profound. Whether writing about bitterness and happiness or writing about love-friendship, she has her unique feelings and personal temperament. Shu Ting mainly reflects the life of the times by expressing her inner world. She likes to use symbols, metaphors, hints, synaesthesia, illusions and hallucinations, and often uses philosophical arguments. Shu Ting's poetry style is deep and subtle, feminine and delicate. * The poems written in 1998 reveal loneliness, depression and sentimentality, and the poems written in the new period have obviously changed. Some poems are called "obscure poems" because of their obscure intentions, flickering images and vague meanings, which are difficult for ordinary people to understand. Shu Ting is one of the representatives of the misty poetry school.
