"I don't just want bread and peace in front of me, I also want poetry and distance." "You want, you want too much, keep it. What do you mean?
According to my understanding, bread is originally a kind of food, but in combination with this whole sentence, bread refers to all kinds of things you desire in life, which can be money, ability, love or even food to satisfy your food and clothing. What you are facing is your present situation, that is, your current material living standard. In my opinion, Poetry and Distance is a spiritual thing, a spiritual pursuit rather than a material pursuit. It is an unreachable ideal that cannot be realized immediately, your pursuit of life, your perception of life, or a dream that can never be realized, but at the same time it is essential. Here is an article from Gao: "My mother taught us not to be trapped by some so-called property since childhood. So my sister and I traveled all over the world, and then neither of us bought a house, so we felt very happy. My mother said that life is not the immediate life, but poetry and distance. My sister and I are deeply educated by this. If someone thinks this is your life, then your life is over. Life is suitable for distant places, and you can go as far as you can; I can't walk far, and I don't have a penny. Then I study poetry. Poetry means that you are sitting here, and it is far away. The older you get, the more you can understand your mother's words. " So the whole sentence seems clear now. What the protagonist wants is not only material wealth, but also spiritual wealth, which is actually his pursuit of his ideal and lifestyle. The person who answers him may think that he wants too much, both material richness and spiritual pursuits, but judging from the tone of the speaker, I think the respondent may also agree with the hero and be willing to help him realize these pursuits.
