Feeling is always hazy and erratic, not accepting the description of thinking and not being dominated by reason. And once the feeling is connected with the reason caused by thinking, it will form the appearance of color form, just like the wishes, fantasies and impulses in the painter's heart are transformed into touching color effects in the patchwork of brushes.
Reading Gu Cheng's Feeling, you can easily find the relationship between feeling and color, that is, from the form of feeling color, he experienced a painful life reflection, which the poet wants to tell the world.
Gray originally represented feelings such as sadness, sadness and depression. The poet just "looks at" heaven "and" earth "with black eyes. It is the filth behind the light, the ugliness behind the beauty and the truth behind the fact that makes him feel depressed: "The sky is gray/the road is gray/the building is gray/the rain is gray".
After reading it, I found that the poet seemed to understand the reader's psychological induction of "gray" lines, and gave us a little comfort in a perfunctory way: "A suit of gray/two children/a suit of red/a suit of light green".
Red represents enthusiasm, green represents life, represents rebirth and represents hope. Red children, green children, finally "lively and laughing" out of the "gray" shackles. Children are always regarded as the symbol of pure life and new youth. They are "in a gray/out", gratifying and vivid, giving people a bright "vitality and vitality and new life and hope", but where will they go?
There is no paradise in front of us, so we can only walk on the gray road, walk into the gray buildings in the gray world again, and face the gray rain. There is no heaven on the earth that can make their red and green eternal. They are bound to go to another color, not absolute black or white, nor red or green any more.
Red+light green = gray. Our only hope has turned into disappointment. Poets always like to break the dream of the world. "Two children"-the symbol of life-finally entered the gray. Sorrow is the poet's presupposition, and it is the presupposition after the poet's painful life thinking: the beginning and end of life are gray and sad.
Red and green are only derivatives of gray. Feeling undoubtedly gains the tension of expression by confronting our emotions. It finally broke our good wishes: tomorrow will be better and life should be bright and sunny.
It is true that human life, which is always gray, has an extremely negative tendency. It was born in the gray, and it will stumble on the gray road, suffer all the way, and finally die in the gray. However, life can approach the grave step by step in the sunshine, as Schopenhauer warned: "We live because of pain."
After all, the process is red or green, just like the children in Feeling, walking in red or green, so the beginning and the end are gray, so there is no need to study too much, because the process of life can be sunny.
