What is the artistic technique of Rain Lane? What is the status of theme and poetry?

This is a lyrical artistic conception full of strong symbolic colors. Here, the poet metaphorically described the dark and dreary social reality at that time as a narrow and lonely "rain lane". There is no sound, no joy, no sunshine here. The poet himself is such a lonely person wandering in the rain lane.

Narrow and gloomy rain lanes, lonely travelers wandering in the rain lanes, and girls as sad as cloves constitute a symbolic artistic conception. Implicitly implies the author's confusion, sadness and expectation. On the surface, it is about the expectation of beautiful love. At a deeper level, it is a symbol of the inner complex emotions of individuals and even a generation of young people, and it is a kind of anguish and hesitation about the gains and losses of beautiful ideals.

The summer of 1927 produced by Rain Lane is the darkest time in China's modern history. The massacre of revolutionary youth by reactionaries. Young people who enthusiastically responded to the revolution suddenly fell from the climax of the fire into the abyss of the night. Some of them can't find the future of revolution. They are in pain. Disappointed, they are eager for the emergence of new hopes and look forward to colorful rainbows floating in the haze. Rain Lane reflects the mentality of some progressive young people at that time.

As a representative of modernist symbolist poets, Dai Wangshu used symbolism to create a long and lonely rain lane, a lilac-like girl and a lonely traveler, which also conveyed the poet's inner anguish and hesitation and showed us the mental state of intellectuals in that era.
