(Tang) Pi Rixiu
You were famous before you crossed the ocean, and a good hand can boast of being thin and beautiful.
Bones are produced from meat. Gui Xiang divided the crabs into bags.
Don't be afraid of thunder and lightning, but also know that you can hold your hand for nothing.
The sea dragon king is also very rampant. Just scratching at the grass.
Ode to Crab (Don Pirixiu)
The first sentence leads to the crab's famous voice in the ocean, and the next sentence refers to its strange appearance (because crab is a crustacean, its chest, back and feet are all hard shells, and its head is like a bone). The other two sentences say that crabs have no heart and intestines, so there is nothing to care about. Hun has the courage to cross the sea dragon king. It not only highlights its gender, but also echoes the first sentence. The crab crossing the sea is despised by people, but the crab in this poem dares to cross the sea dragon king, which is a spirit of courage.
Pi Rixiu's poem "The Ode to the Crab": "Before you swam across the sea, you were famous, but you had bones and were born of meat. Mo Dao is not afraid of thunder and lightning, and the sea dragon king is also crazy. " It is almost universal to grasp the crab's "rampant" state and entrust the poet's thoughts and feelings.
Appreciate:
Crab has always been regarded as a typical negative image of running amok and doing evil, but in Ode to a Crab, Pi Rixiu endowed the crab with a rebellious character of not being afraid of violence. In this poem, the poet enthusiastically praised the crab's unyielding character, fearless heart and feat of being fearless of power and daring to "commit crimes", and entrusted him with his warm praise and loud call for the rebellious spirit of being selfless and fearless, daring to "run amok" and crashing into the world.
This poem is very commendable in artistic expression skills. The first is the multi-faceted image description. The first sentence "You have never been to the sea before you became famous" is to describe the lofty position of crabs in the poet's mind from a distance through the name of crabs that the poet has heard for a long time. The word "Zao" not only shows the long-standing reputation of crabs, but also shows the poet's deep love for crabs. The second sentence, "bones are born of meat", focuses on the shape of crabs. "Bone" has a carapace, which is an important difference between crabs and boneless mollusks and also a means of survival. The word "bone" implies the poet's proud praise for crabs. Three or four sentences, "Mo Dao has no intention of fearing lightning, and the sea dragon king is also rampant", is to draw crabs from the perspective of the spiritual world. Legend has it that the emperor of heaven is the supreme ruler of the universe, the sea dragon king is the owner of the aquarium, and lightning is the product of the emperor's anger. Crabs are not only afraid of the thunder and lightning of the Emperor of Heaven, but also afraid of the power of the Dragon King. Even in the Dragon King Longting, I dare to "run wild". It is precisely because of these various sculptures that the rebellious character of crabs who are not afraid of power has a three-dimensional sense.
Secondly, the profound thoughts and feelings contained in interesting images are also the remarkable artistic characteristics of this poem. The feudal order does not allow the public expression of rebellious thoughts, and the artistic law of poetry also requires the author's ideological tendency to be integrated into the artistic image as much as possible. This is the reason why the poet has a rebellious consciousness in the "crazy" crab image. In the poem, the poet praises the rebellious character of the crab, which is not explicit, but endows the image of the crab with humanity, and depicts it layer by layer from the aspects of "name", "bone", "heart" and "rampage", so that readers can taste the theme contained in the three-dimensional image of the crab.
