Comment on Bian's Broken Chapter

Broken chapter

You stand on the bridge and watch the scenery.

The landscape man is watching you upstairs.

The bright moon decorated your window.

You decorated other people's dreams.

Broken chapter is the representative work of Bian, a poet of "Crescent School", and it was written on 1935+00. It is said that this poem is the most satisfactory four sentences extracted by the author from a long poem, and then becomes an independent chapter, so it is named "Broken Chapter". This poem later became an immortal work in the history of modern poetry in China.

There are only four sentences in the whole poem, which is concise and fresh, with endless implications. The whole poem outlines two quiet and rich pictures. Although there is no color, it also makes this poem full of beautiful pictures and makes the pictures look fresh and bright. "You stand on the bridge and watch the scenery, and the people watching the scenery are watching you upstairs." Bridges, balconies, people and scenery constitute a quiet and affectionate picture, which makes people full of infinite reverie. People who look at the scenery stand on the bridge and look around, intoxicated by the beautiful mountains and rivers, and must have a beautiful landscape painting in their eyes. At the same time, people upstairs are also watching the scenery. There is another landscape painting in the eyes of those who look at the bridge, and it happens that the people on the bridge are in the center of this painting, which is the focus of those who look at the scenery. From the poet's point of view, people on the bridge and upstairs can see it, which is another interesting landscape painting. Therefore, the whole poem is rich in pictures and interesting, which makes people wonder whether the people upstairs glanced at it unintentionally or followed it affectionately. Perhaps, the scenery of the people upstairs is the people on the bridge, which makes the poem look affectionate and makes the picture more tender and affectionate. "The bright moon decorated your window and you decorated other people's dreams" constitutes a picture of missing lovers on a moonlit night. The man in the picture fell asleep on a moonlit night and dreamed of his lover who missed him very much. At this moment, my lover is reflecting the bright moon under the window, and maybe he is thinking about himself. The images of bright moon, window and dream once again create a quiet atmosphere, and at the same time, with long thoughts, you can feel the faint sweetness of love when reading.

There are still many ideas when reading the complete poem. The emotion and connotation contained in the whole poem make this poem more mysterious and hazy. People like a poem, a painting, a book, or what they see and read in it. The emotion and experience contained in this poem may have aroused the admiration and appreciation of many people and made many people read themselves, so this poem is known and liked by more people. Interpret the emotion of this poem from a personal point of view, and read "Watching and Remembering". "You are standing on the bridge watching the scenery, and the people watching the scenery are watching you upstairs." Taste it carefully and feel that you are his scenery. Your eyes are a colorful world, but his eyes are only you. You are his world, his focus. At this moment, he must be looking at you quietly and affectionately, waiting to meet your eyes and wait for you to turn around. If not, he will not be disappointed, or quietly and affectionately watching. "The bright moon decorated your window, and you decorated other people's dreams." If you miss more, you dream of your lover. Missing is as gentle as moonlight and as long as the eternal moon, so the dream is sweet, just like the sweet moon accompanying you. So this poem can be interpreted as a man's watch and yearning for his beloved lover.

Bian appreciates this poem very much, because it expresses the meaning of "relative", calls you by the second person, and at the same time creates another "you" in artistic conception, making the poet himself an observer. From the perspective of life and life experience, the sights and experiences in poetry seem to be everyone's casual experiences and feelings. You stand on the bridge and watch the scenery, and inadvertently become the scenery in the eyes of others; And you on a moonlit night may be being sweetly dreamed by someone. Everything in the universe is closely related to people, and this connection is also an undiscovered beauty and existence of life, and it is also a comforting touch when everyone remembers it. Therefore, the rich emotions and experiences contained in this immortal poem have brought us a lot of enlightenment and gains in our lives.
