How can we write modern poetry better?

First, how to write a poem, there are several steps:

I have something to say in my heart.

First of all, the creator himself has a kind of thought or emotion that he wants to express (such as loving the party, loving the motherland, hating corruption, etc., which can involve all aspects of daily life). No matter whether this kind of thought or emotion is clear or vague (ambiguity here refers to what may happen at a certain writing level), in short, he has a desire to express himself and want the world to know his thoughts or emotions. Of course, you can narrow it down and let only one person know (you can assume that there is such a person). So, you think you have something to say. So, implicitly, or directly, this is your choice.

When I can't write, people always say: I have no inspiration. In fact, I just have nothing to say in my heart and nothing to tell anyone. If there are many different things to say in your heart every day, then there will be something to write every day.

Express with artistic feeling

Let's do an experiment first. Write the words, sentences, paragraphs, stories, poems, images, colors and scenes that you can think of when you see the glass. Write it out.

A color, a scene, etc. Write whatever you want (5 minutes).

The creator's thoughts and emotions should be expressed through language, so this language must be refined artistic language, and artistic language comes from the creator's own artistic feelings.

A sense of art is different from a sense of nature. For example, write a poem based on glass, or write images, colors and scenes. In short, write down what you can think of when you see the glass.

Please see: my thoughts fly through the transparent glass to the depths of white clouds.

Artistic sense is to look at things from an aesthetic point of view. This feeling is artistic, unreal, unrealistic and even unscientific, but it is in line with the author's mood at the moment and has obvious imagination space.

This way of thinking is called divergent thinking. Divergent thinking is obviously different from single linear thinking.

Then, the emotions expressed by these divergent thinking languages are also different. These emotions must be consistent with the emotions you want to express. Dreams smile in the starlight at night. Anyone who reads such a poem will feel happy. In this way, you are using your emotional contagion readers. You just bring him into your poem step by step.

Artistic sense is to look at natural things with aesthetic feeling and vision. Seeing mountains is not just mountains, and seeing water is not just water. Look at the electric light, not the electric light, but the diamond. Look at the blackboard, not the blackboard, but a green grassland or a huge emerald.

First write what you have captured with artistic sense, even if it is a color, in a word. But that's your own unique feeling.

Artistic feeling can be trained, and this training method is the same as training imagination. Take ten minutes to think about a substance and see how many metaphors you can come up with. Keep training for a period of time, and you can improve.

However, no matter what artistic means you use to express it, it must be consistent with your thoughts and feelings. Therefore, all scenery languages (the language of writing scenery) are love languages.

If you are writing a poem, you should try your best to express what you want to say with artistic feeling. Then the next step.

C, streamline and refine the report (modified)

Poetry is often rational thinking or abstract thinking, and it is an art expressed in perceptual language or visual language. Thought is the core, image is the coat, and words are the symbols of image. Several words form one or several images, and multiple images form a clear or vague concept.

Since ancient times, the standard of a good poem has always been a high combination of philosophy and poetry, in other words, a high combination of artistry and ideology. If you want every poem to meet this standard, it is difficult for beginners to write poems, even for old poets, because writing a good poem requires many factors. Everything is regular, so is writing. There must be a quantitative accumulation process, and then there will be a qualitative leap. If you come up with amazing words, then you must have a lot of distinctive knowledge structure and cultural background, as well as many advanced and scientific experiences and methods (whether others or yourself), so that you have this condition, but the effect and result are still difficult to predict.

Use divergent thinking to modify the sentence again. There is no pattern in review. Simple words can be modified, and whole sentences can be modified in more complicated ways. More complicated ones can be reconsidered, or the whole poem can be overturned and rewritten.

Often beginners are too lazy to revise poems. Or you can't see the problem yourself.
