Regarding the concept of short poems, Dr. Zeng Hongwei of China West Normal University has a more pertinent exposition in his book "On the Evolution of Modern Short Poems in China": "Short poems are a kind of free verse with short form (usually a few lines or more), concise content, single instant feeling and epiphany." (The Evolution of Modern Poetry in China, Guizhou People's Publishing House, 2005, p. 27). Unfortunately, when we talk about the conciseness of short poems, we often pay special attention to their exquisiteness, interest, verve and philosophical flavor (representative works include Gu Cheng's Generation, Zhou's Monument to the People's Heroes, Han Han's Weight and Sunset in the Desert, etc.). ), thus ignoring the reference to the details of short poems and ignoring short poems. That is to say, there are only a handful of excellent poems facing life, especially riff-raff's poems (or, in short, poems lacking realism). For example, there are 1620 mini-poems in Kexing Wei, a famous writer in Shaanxi Province, almost all of which are good philosophical poems, but few realistic poems); KaRen Yang's call to Yang Can, a college student, is a masterpiece of short poems facing the life of the lower class. Whether this is the shortest poem in KaRen Yang needs textual research, but it can be said that this short poem fills the blank of simple content of ordinary short poems and achieves a breakthrough in the value orientation of short poems, which should arouse our colleagues who study the history of contemporary literature, especially the history of short poems.
Poetry is only three short lines, which belongs to both small poems and miniature poems. The poem tells the content of a telephone conversation with her daughter. In fact, it is an exhortation, a warning and an inculcation from parents to their children unilaterally. Poetry is rich and profound in emotion, full of parents' ardent love for their children; It is also a humorous appeal. This appeal is not only for their own children, but also for all the children in the world. This is also a slap in the face of the little emperors who appeared around the 1980 s! It is a powerful medicine for their extravagant consumption! This is the typicality of this poem and its historical value. After this realistic narrative, we can also understand the meaning behind it: if you spend so much money, you will push our parents into a corner and even rob a bank! Two "no" can be described as landing! Through the back of the paper! They revealed the embarrassment of life from a negative perspective. This short three-line poem is also deeply rooted in reality and realistic narrative skills. Naturally, this seemingly short poem can't be written without real life experience (as the critic Xie Youshun advocated "the truth of experience") and rich life details. Finally, this poetic language can be said to be authentic spoken language, cordial and natural, unpretentious, easy to recite, and worthy of being a masterpiece in contemporary small poems.
Just like when I was in college, when I was reading Alai's Blood of the Old Year, I read the happy mole between Alai's eyebrows. Now I read that Mr. KaRen Yang called Yang Can when he was in college, and I read the faint wrinkles when he was worried about the people and hurting the people. From this poem, we can also see some characteristics of KaRen Yang's other poems: first, lyrical style; Second, pay attention to people's livelihood; Third, the breadth of vision; Fourth, majestic artistic conception; Fifth, colloquial methods.
Attachment: The original poem "The University Calls for Yang Can":
Call Yang Can, a college student.
KaRen Yang
How do you spend your money on dog dolls?
Your parents didn't print money.
Let alone rob a bank.
