There are cars passing by in the street.
There is loneliness in the mailbox.
Mailbox PO
But I can't remember the car number x,
There are Arabic numerals alone,
Cars are lonely,
Lonely streets,
The loneliness of human beings.
According to Fei Ming's records, this poem was written in Huguosi Street in Beiping. We can infer that the poet was standing in the street (or at the crossroads), a speeding car passed by, the crowd hurried by, and people were strangers. People and things are just as strange. Because of strangeness, the loneliness that exists in the heart arises spontaneously. People are lonely, so are static mailboxes, and so are dynamic cars and streets, forming a lonely and cold mime. When the poet looks at the street view coldly, he naturally can't remember the number of cars that keep speeding, and perhaps even the color has no impression; The solitary mailbox standing on the street gives the poet a direct feeling that it is just its code name (abbreviation of English POST, or the first two words). This eight-line poem uses five "loneliness", which is a rhetorical taboo, but it also expresses the inner cry of modern people, the helpless portrayal of city life, the emptiness and loneliness of the soul, and there is no object to entrust.
Needless to say, where he came to this street, this street is clearly the shadow of society, and it gives the author a feeling of loneliness. Loneliness is not synonymous with "quiet", but loneliness and coldness. Essentially, it is the author's denial of the world. Fei Ming was born in Huangmei, a region with profound traditional culture and a hometown of etiquette. Buddhism, Zen and Taoism are developed here, and he has been influenced since childhood, which has influenced his attitude towards life and literary works. "I think that if China had not been influenced by Buddhism, the air in literature and art would have been more stale and the article would have lost many beautiful words" (Fei). Fei Ming often talks about Buddhism with others. Zhou Zuoren once recorded anecdotes about Fei Ming in Huai Fei Ming. I remember that Fei Ming once argued for Buddhism in Xiong Shili, and even two people used force. In daily life, he often meditated and practiced Buddhism. His poems are "intense and deep in meditation" (at the peak) and are called "lonely poets". Poetry is difficult to understand and few people read it. To be exact, not many people can read its mystery and get its name. "When colleagues flocked to western poets, he was the only one with a strange vision of Badashan people. Be a poet with detached spirit. Without the far-reaching influence of Buddhist culture, it is hard for a person to endure this loneliness.
Zhou Zuoren called it "Taoism above Buddhism except Laozi and Zhuangzi". The streets are obviously full of Taoist thoughts. The car was lonely when it passed the mailbox. I can't remember the car number. This car is lonely. The car is moving and the mailbox is static. Whether it is moving or static, it is lonely, which is the embodiment of Taoism's relativity and relative unity. Therefore, everything-streets, human beings are lonely. The author's feelings about cars and mailboxes triggered his feelings about human beings. Car mailbox is a modern industrial product of capitalism in 1930s. A car is a means of transportation to accelerate human movement. E-mail is a means of transportation for human thinking, which has brought faster and more convenient communication to human beings, but it has not changed human mental state-human beings are still lonely. This is not only a question of modernization and progress, but also a denial of social progress in essence. Now Song Zu Ying's Good Days is getting better and better, materially, but what about the human spirit? I'm afraid there are more and more empty and bored people. If you admit it. In the 1930s, Fei Ming had such profound thoughts that he had to be admired. Taoism advocates "abandoning wisdom" and "returning to nature", which is the embodiment of Fei Ming's Taoist thought.
Where did Fei Ming come from? Of course, judging from his research, he is a scholar. He once wrote in "The Lamp": "After reading a copy of Laozi's Tao Te Ching in the middle of the night, if you give up good or bad luck, you will regret meeting in one room." "His denial of' street' is an affirmation of study and life." Study life is the representative of quiet life. Taoism advocates "quietness", which means "restoring life" and "restoring life" is called "normality". "Normality" can be all-inclusive. If it is in harmony with nature, it will be in harmony with Tao and will last forever. (Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching, Chapter 13). What a long waste name! "Seventy or eighty years later, this is the laggard of that year, with the fastest feet" (online download). Why do you like it? Here, the author has many grievances. Isn't this the way human beings advocate nature now? Fei Ming's sharp eyes and speculative power have aroused the admiration of avant-garde poets today, which is reasonable. "Writing an article thinks that it has no impact on society, just like' Fei Ming', thinking that it is really ruined. Fei Ming' is Fei Ming. If there is no impact on society, it is not even necessary to write. If you really want to abolish the name, you can't even sign the name "Fei Ming" (Lu Xun's language). Fei Ming really has no "Fei Ming". "Fei Ming" is the namesake brother of Taoism "Wuwei". Fei Ming has "promising and wonderful use" in "inaction" This "lonely poet" is not lonely, he will always influence future generations. Now Huangmei No.1 Middle School, a key middle school in his hometown, established Fei Mingwen Society in 1992, and his spirit and artistic style will last forever and be carried forward.
Both Buddhism and Taoism embody the idea that Fei Ming was born. Fei Ming praised Tao Yuanming and wrote that Tao Yuanming loved trees. Tao abandoned his official position because he was dissatisfied with the darkness of officialdom, and he was avoiding the world. Why did Fei Ming avoid the world? Of course there are many aspects, as far as this poem is concerned. Cars, mailboxes and numbers are all imported. As a scholar, he is not worried, but the helpless situation can only make him feel lonely. I wonder if this view is debatable.
