Modern poetry is of course poetry.
The reason why "poetry" is called "poetry" has nothing to do with whether it has poetic meaning or not.
Poetry is a literary genre and a definition, which means that poetry is concrete in the minds of people who engage in literary theory, not emptiness. The purpose of the literary genre "poetry" is to express emotions and explore artistic conceptions higher than other literary styles. This makes many people mistakenly believe that "poetry" does not pay attention to format, as long as it expresses feelings and artistic conception.
Understanding of poetry
First, I don’t understand it at all. People say that what he writes is “poetry”, and that is poetry.
This is a complete novice state, there is nothing to say.
The second is that I have been exposed to a lot of "poems", awakened my self-awareness, and made judgments based on daily knowledge.
Friends in this state can tell the quality of "poetry" from bad, so many garbage in modern poetry, which has no poetic meaning, will be angrily reviled by them, thinking that it is not "poetry". Only works with beautiful, pure emotions, noble and elegant feelings are worthy of being called "poetry".
This is a purely natural understanding of poetry. Of course it is beautiful, but it is shallow.
