The poetry of chanting things is written as follows:
There are two methods of chanting poems: one is to put oneself in it; the other is to stand beside oneself. "That is to say, there are roughly two types of writing methods of poems about objects: one is a simple poem about objects with no sustenance, such as the poems about objects in Qi and Liang Dynasties that describe shapes; the other is objects with sustenance. Allegorical poems about objects, such as Qu Yuan's "Ode to Oranges"
1. Direct description of objects (without sustenance)
Most of these poems about objects. The style of painting is like a still life painting and a meticulous painting of flowers and birds. They are lifelike, lovely and delicious. They can also be divided into three writing methods according to their different emphasis:
< p>1. Preferring to describe the form. This writing method focuses on expressing the external form of the object. As stated in "Wen Xin Diao Long· Wu Se": "The body is wonderful, and the power lies in its close attachment." Therefore, the shape of the cut is like the ink pad of a seal. There is no carving or cutting, and the writing is straight and mustard. Therefore, you can see the appearance by looking at the words, and you can know the time by looking at the words. ”2. Preferring to write about gods. This type of poem about objects does not pursue detailed description and skillful resemblance, but focuses on writing the demeanor of the object and expressing the inner spirit of the object. However, this spirit is not as good as To be honest, the poet just writes about the atmosphere of things that he feels at the moment, just like Western impressionist painting or Chinese freehand painting.

But this kind of affection is similar to the "thinking for thousands of years" and "viewing through" in lyric poems. The free expression of "Wanli" is also different. It must be carried out on the basis of chanting objects, or borrowing objects to describe aspirations, or supporting objects to metaphor, or using objects to reason. It cannot do without this object, so it is still a poem of chanting objects. Secondly, it is In terms of the focus of creation, it is also different from the previous category. Its focus has been placed on the "meaning" of the metaphor, rather than the shape and spirit of the object.
