In the second quarter, the poet still didn't explain why we could only face the back, but continued the "killing" in front and wrote some devastating consequences. "Those who turn their backs on us cut off the sincerity that is coming tomorrow." After reading these, soft readers, have you already issued a sad sigh? Who left with his back to us? Who is so heartless? "Who" just disappeared towards the distant horizon in our hearts? Where the sun doesn't shine, that's where the shadow of "Who" disappears, right? Go away, I can't see anymore! Go away, you'll never see me again! Of course, there is no "you" and "I" here, because "you" and "I" should be a relationship of speaking and listening! There are only "who", "others", "passers-by" and "strangers" ... isolated unitary individuals without blood relationship can only extinguish the flame and temperature that should be between people, and only the thermal temperature and combustion that life encounters can give birth to the fire of hope of life! So, dear reader, it may not be difficult for you to understand why the poet used "cut off". Tomorrow, sincerity and hope are cut off! Without hope, there is no future! Therefore, "shadow" belongs to the "anti-summoning" structure of this particular era. If you refuse to call, a lonely person left behind will lose the possibility of being called, the lonely person will no longer be "blessed" and "redemption" will no longer come. You will become a strange and absolute other who refuses, and God and divinity are summoned to a foreign land far away from this shore, where it is humane and peaceful. "Trust" is the most missing treasure in this era, but it is swallowed up by what we don't know in the fragments and discrete structure of modernity that swept through. What is a poet?
In the last section, the poet finally clearly pointed out the universal "poverty" belonging to the "times". The root of poverty lies in the absence of "great men". The "great man" here is undoubtedly not a secular great man who holds political power, but actually the most holy person who belongs to "divinity" and "spirituality". He has never appeared or been expelled. Who can hear the singing of the heart? Who can accept the revelation of the Holy Spirit? Who can be justified by faith? Confucius and Christ are both dead. We killed the king of heaven and the saint of all ages! It was killed by ourselves, stupid people. Didn't you hear the poet's voice? When you look blankly at a group of low-headed people who have passed away, if you can hear the voice of the poet, you may not be confused about "who are they busy for", "they are busy for themselves" and "they are busy for others", as we suggested at the beginning of the article. Because, according to the latest news, they are already walking dead, but they are already dead. Mobile phones and the Internet are their coffins of mutation or invisibility. They are standing and sitting, but they have already been buried! Who else do you want them to live for?
Therefore, when the poet asks "whose back do you see" again at the end, this kind of intense confusion, doubt and strangeness in the face of the back makes us in a world of questioning everywhere, and we are constantly asking "who" and "who"? "Who" or "Who" may be a key word of the times pointed out by the poet again. This is no longer an introspective question of Socrates asking "Who am I", "Where am I from" and "Where am I going", but an outward question pointing to the absolutely incomprehensible "Other" and "The Other". The confusion of "who" at the end of the article is accompanied by the shadow left by the "back" at the beginning. This lonely fate of "I" being rejected from beginning to end and the absence of "trust", "tomorrow", "sincerity" and "great man" in the article mark the desolation of modernity. This poem tells the sadness of China poets who have just stepped into the modern threshold from agricultural civilization, facing the mixed living in China who are entangled in the decline of classicism but have not really entered the modern era! The classical aura has disappeared, and the future era has not yet arrived! Readers who are familiar with China's modern literature may be very familiar with Zhu Ziqing's prose "The Back" of the same name. In Mr. Zhu Ziqing's pen, when the difficult father's back crosses obstacles, his heart is towards his son, and his son's heart is also towards his father. In the "calling" structure of The Back, the blood relatives are awakened, which is actually the affection concealed by the son who went to a foreign land in classical society. Although there is still hope, it is the legacy of a classical era that has ended. In this work by Mr. Huang Lihai, the "back" is given a new meaning, and the back is modernized and modernized. "Back" has become a symbolic image of China's typical modernity, and "Who" or "Who" is another call of "anti-anti-summoning structure" aroused by this typical symbolic image, which also follows "back". Please let us ask Socrates "Who am I" again? Perhaps, only in the answer to the old question can "who" come to me!
The poet's last question contains the expectation of the redemption of the times and the blame for the vacant modern people. Because of expectation, he had to blame, because of blame, he had to give up expectation. Perhaps every real poet is the rebirth of Socrates, and every great poet is the return of Confucius! Let's follow the poet's footsteps and win our spiritual home!
