Author: Gong Liu
I am China's wound,
I know the dagger.
It's a wounded man.
It was the beast that caused the wound!
I haven't recovered yet,
When you touch it, your blood will flow;
This is China's blood,
Not your wine!

As a weapon to defend China's honor and dignity, Gong Liu's wounds, every word is a bullet, shot at the makers of those wounds; Like a dagger, it stabbed the wound maker. Reading this poem, a strong patriotic passion will immediately come to mind.
In the first part, the poet expressed his hatred and curse to the wound maker. Because "I am China's wound/I know the dagger", the poet angrily wrote that "man added the wound/the beast made the wound". In the second quarter, the poet used his own pain to feel the pain of the motherland, so the poet wrote: "I haven't recovered yet/I will bleed when I touch it." At the same time, this is also the poet's heartfelt cry and the horn to defend the motherland. So the poet said loudly, "This is China's blood/not your wine", and no one is allowed to trample on it.
When the poet wrote this poem, it had the background of the times at that time, and it still has great historical, practical and educational significance to read it now. In the past, someone made a wound for us, and we suffered; Now and in the future, there are still or may be wound makers around us, and they may also bring us pain. Therefore, we must always be vigilant. This also fully embodies the poet's high patriotism, but also embodies the poet's revolutionary and fearless nationalism.
There are still many places worth thinking about and learning from in this poem, which also reminds me of why Mr. Lu Xun gave up medicine and went to literature. Of course, there are many poems and literary works like this, which are precious spiritual wealth left to us.
Shu Ting's "Missing"
A color wall chart without lines.
A pure but unsolvable algebra
A dulcimer, plucking the rain beads on the eaves.
A pair of oars that can't reach the other shore
Bud usually waits in silence.
Sunset is usually far away.
Maybe there is an ocean hidden.
But all I shed was two tears.
Ah, in the vision of the heart
in one's soul of souls

"Missing" is an extremely beautiful word. Throughout the ages, countless poets and writers have written beautiful sentences that will last forever. "My pocket is getting wider and wider, and I will never regret it, which will make people haggard" (Liu Yong), "After parting, I will remember meeting you and dreaming with you several times" (Yan), and "If I keep cutting, I will leave my sorrow, but I will be confused. Especially "A Taste in My Heart" (Li Yu), "When wine worries, it turns into lovesick tears" (Fan Zhongyan), "Spring is three points, dust is two points, and water is one point. In detail, it seems that it is not, but tears that keep people "(Su Shi) is like mourning. The sad and touching poems have crossed the limitation of time and space and have caused songs among countless readers for thousands of years.
In the works of contemporary female poets, Missing still makes many people cry because of its purity and truth.
The first section of this poem shows the uniqueness of this poem with unique ideas and forms. "A colorful wall chart without lines"-you can feel its beauty, but you can't touch its shape; "A pure but unsolvable algebra"-I can understand its feelings but can't find its fruit. Isn't this helplessness and sadness exactly where I miss you like a dream? The strings are lonely, the sound of the piano is broken, and hope and disappointment are flashing in the "rain beads under the eaves". Not like the pain of "swimming from it, swimming in the middle of the water" and "between water and water, the pulse can't be said", the lingering acacia sadness overflows between the lines of the poem, which makes people unbearable to touch.
"Bud generally waits silently", and the word "silently" makes the image of "Bud" more prominent, and the eagerness of waiting and the deep feeling of hope overflow on the paper; "The sunset is as far away as the sun", and "far" highlights the sadness of waiting and the pain of missing.
In this warm picture, the two images freeze the hearts that people miss. Deep in the heart is the ocean. Tears like the sea, thoughts like the sea, expectations like the sea. Finally, the restless sea language overflowed two deep lakes, and two crystal tears reflected all the true feelings in the world. The truth of missing, from the inside out, from the shallow to the deep, has been vividly reflected.
Acacia is not a simple matter, and the poet's performance also starts from many angles and aspects, using images to help him think and speak. Although the four images are logically unrelated, the essence of each image can remind people of acacia with similar meanings. At this time, the poetic thinking is abstract and can't find obvious logical traces, but the emotional feeling is three-dimensional and has a profound aftertaste.
say goodbye to
Outside the pavilion, next to the ancient road,
The grass is blue,
The evening breeze blows the willow flute,
The sunset is beyond the mountain.
The edge of the sky, the horn of the sea,
A close friend has half a broken heart.
A bottle of turbid wine makes you happy,
Don't go to Meng Han tonight.
Farewell is one of the representative works of Hongyi (1880-1942), a master of modern Buddhism. The master's common surname is Li, and his uncle is Tong, a native of Tianjin. He studied in Japan and became a monk after the September 18th Incident. This poem adopts the format of ancient epigraph, and the language is fresh and simple, expressing the sadness when leaving. Shang Kun described the scene of sending it to other places: long pavilions, ancient roads and fragrant meadows. It was night, the sun was setting and the flute was flying in the evening breeze. This was originally a harmonious and beautiful scene, but it was bleak because of separation. Xia Gan is the author's reflection on the situation in recent years: because of various reasons of the times and life, most of my intimate friends are scattered all over the world, and I don't know if I can see you again in my lifetime. It is heartbreaking to think of these farewell drinks.
This was written by Master Hongyi before he became a monk. After composing music, it was widely circulated as "Graduation Song" with extremely beautiful tunes. The audience who saw the movie Old Things in the South of the City were deeply moved by it.
Ye Ting's Prison Song
The doors that people come in and out are locked,
The hole the dog climbed out of was open,
A voice shouted:
Climb out! Give you freedom!
I long for freedom,
But I know very well-
How can a human body crawl out of a dog hole!
I hope that one day,
Underground fire,
Burn me with this living coffin,
I deserve to live forever in fire and blood!

General Ye Ting's original poem "Prison Song" was signed "a layman who hit a wall on six sides", which was a vivid portrayal of his situation at that time. After the Southern Anhui Incident, General Ye Ting, then commander of the New Fourth Army, was unreasonably detained by the Kuomintang authorities for a long time. At the time of writing this poem, he was imprisoned in the Lu Hong factory on the outskirts of Chongqing, where senior political prisoners were held, which was a "forbidden place" for the notorious Sino-US Institute of Technical Cooperation.
The poem "Prison Song" embodies General Ye Ting's profound experience of prison life and is his tragic reflection on the dialectical relationship between life, freedom and dignity. Every word carries a lot of weight.
"The door where people go in and out is locked, and the hole where dogs climb out is open." At the beginning of Prison Song, General Ye Ting tells the story of the separation of freedom and dignity of the victims imprisoned in prison in vivid language. On the one hand, the reactionary authorities absolutely do not allow prisoners to protect their integrity and dignity as free people; On the other hand, they try their best to lure the victims into losing their dignity in exchange for open space for action. The following words "Climb out and set you free" vividly outline the arrogant, insidious and ferocious face of fascists. However, the freedom that revolutionaries yearn for has never been at the expense of condescension, let alone the so-called "freedom" in exchange for servility. Scholars can be killed but not humiliated, which has been the law of benevolent people since ancient times. "I long for freedom, but I also know that the human body can climb out of the dog hole!" The poet proudly rejected the temptation of reactionaries. Freedom is precious, however, how can you be condescending without freedom of dignity? A imprisoned soldier is still a soldier, and a free beast is always an animal. The spirit of freedom is isolated from the high wall of fascism, and the suffering people always yearn for the warmth of freedom, but they can't combine it. Prison has never been a hotbed of fantasy, but its reality is darkness, terror and death. The poor backbone of the weak will be completely melted here, but the awe-inspiring righteousness of the strong can be publicized here. "I can only look forward to one day, the underground fire rushed up and burned this living coffin with me. I deserve eternal life in fire and blood. " The ending of Prison Song is generous and tragic.
For free believers and revolutionary fighters, death is nothing to be afraid of. They understand that at the moment of being imprisoned, they have lived next to death. For many people, the imprisonment of people with lofty ideals may be the last stage of their whole struggle career. They are not afraid of death, and even like to regard death as the last glory of life. Ye Ting's song "Immortality in Fire and Blood" is full of this meaning. In fact, when they chose to be freedom fighters, they realized that there was an umbilical cord between this choice and death. "I deserve to live forever in fire and blood" can also be seen as a heroic confession to the world when freedom fighters are thinking about their last journey. In fact, as the poet himself predicted, after the death of General Ye Ting, his reputation will shine in history and be immortal.
Guo Moruo once commented on General Ye Ting's Prison Song in his poem: "His poems are written with life and blood, and his poems are himself." This poem by General Ye Ting was once set to music. Together with Wen Tianxiang's Song of Benevolence and Righteousness, it was sung by people with lofty ideals imprisoned in this fascist concentration camp, safeguarding their indestructible dignity as human beings.
