Poetry is a literary genre. The beginning of its birth is closely connected with songs, which people usually call poetry. Poetry comes from the lives of working people. It is the accompaniment of the working people's productive labor, the reflection of the taste of life, the expression of thoughts and wishes, and the inner reflection of joy, anger, sorrow and joy. When workers are engaged in production, in order to break the dull atmosphere and relieve their tired body and mind, workers spontaneously hum their inner demands in words. These are the most primitive songs and poems. With the advancement of civilization in society, literati appeared. They absorbed the nutrition of the poetry of the working people, adopted the poetry forms of the working people, and used words to express their own or the working people's life emotions, thoughts and visions. Waka gradually became different from each other. This is what people call poetry now.
The poet is the spokesperson of the working people, and his ideological and emotional tone should be the love and hatred of the working people. Without this point, it is both ignorant and ridiculous to be pretentious, self-admiring, and think that one is transcendent, elegant, and superior to others while living in the palace of high heaven.
Throughout ancient and modern times, anyone who is called a great poet is all because his poems are a mirror of the reality of the working people's lives in that dynasty, that society, and that time. During the Warring States Period, Qu Yuan's "The road is long and long, I will search up and down." What he pursued persistently was to alert King Huai of Chu and repel the slanderers to see through Qin's conspiracy to annex Chu. Bai Juyi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, put forward the idea of ??literary creation that "articles are written for the time, and songs and poems are written for the occasion", expressing the attitude that literary works serve social reality. Lu You of the Song Dynasty wrote "I dare not forget my country despite my humble position", and the modern master Lu Xun said "I bow my head and am willing to be a coward", which fully illustrate that all literati should write works that are closely related to the country and the people. On the contrary, those who moan for no reason and chant poetry that is divorced from society can only be empty-headed writers and idle and boring poets.
The language of poetry should be refined and concise, and should not be sloppy. It should be bright and clear, not obscure and blunt. It should have rhythm, make it catchy when read, and have a rhythm. Be vivid and avoid rigid abstraction. It should be natural and should not be artificial and mysterious. Any good poem can only be read by others, who can understand its purpose, understand the situation, understand its thoughts and views, and understand its hate and love, so that they can be influenced by it and create a positive response. However, some poems make people feel like they are in a fog after reading them. Some of the language in particular is confusing. For example, "Wounded Wind." The wind is invisible. If you say you are injured, what does it look like? What kind of associations can it inspire in readers? Another example is, "The scorching sun wears a huge blue medal." "Scorching sun" should be the sun, so what is the "blue medal"? If it refers to the blue sky, then how can the sun be worn? Another example is, "Use the mountain road to tie up the round surprise." The author uses "round" to modify "surprise". "Surprise" is easy to understand, of course it is an unexpected joy, but with the addition of Yuanyuan, it is really puzzling. What kind of surprise is round? Unbelievable. Probably the author’s feelings are not meant for others to know.
Yes, both new-style poetry and old-style poetry emphasize image thinking. However, this image must be rooted in real life, and it must be able to evoke specific associations when people read your poems. Only then can it create a buzz. Otherwise, how can it impress readers? Perhaps, these authors would say that this belongs to a certain school of poetry. But in reality, no matter what genre, as long as his poems are written, they can be appreciated by a wide range of readers. Only when readers can understand the mystery after reading the poem can they achieve the purpose of appreciation. If you don’t understand what it says, how can you appreciate it? Therefore, I hope these authors can correct their writing style.
