1. The original poem is as follows:

Shu Ting: "Past Things 23" 》

An overturned wine cup

The stone road floated in the moonlight

Where the grass was overwhelming

A azalea was left behind

The eucalyptus forest spins

The stars form a kaleidoscope

On the rusty anchor

The eyes reflect the dizzy sky

Block the candlelight with an erect book

Hold it gently in your mouth with your fingers

In the fragile silence

Do half-light Half-Ignorant Dream

1978.5.23

2. Interpretation of the verses in this poem:

The first verse is realistic, because "the stone road under the moonlight The sentence "floating" makes this realism seem unreal. The second stanza is about hallucinations, but it is a very calm narrative, making the subject of this hallucination - the poet himself hidden behind it - appear real.

In the third stanza, the poet's self gradually emerges, as if from far to near, returning to the eyes: books, candlelight, and fingers in his mouth. The above hallucinations only occur in short, distracted memories. Silence is fragile, and what you have is just a half-conscious dream. It is easy to wake up, short-lived, and therefore more beautiful. It reflects your own helplessness and frustration in reality. Lonely.

3. Overall appreciation of this poem:

You can close your eyes and imagine the scene of this poem in your mind like a movie. The past events only leave these details in the poet's memory. The stories and plots are hidden behind these details, intermittently. For the poet, there may be many things that cannot be said in many words, and there may be more details than these details. Most important, but what the poet wants to express is these: the overturned wine cup, the overwhelming green grass, and the lost azalea. It should be said that there are stories behind them, but "the stone road floats in the moonlight", "the eucalyptus forest" "Spinning up" and "eyes reflecting the dizzy sky" are too much like a sighting. These visions more powerfully put everything into a dream. It is nothing more than too far away or unbearable to look back. There is a lot of beauty in the intimacy. , gentle and beautiful people and things, it also proves the experience that has become a cliché now: "the past is like a dream".

This poem is written in a light, light and bright way, with good light transmittance and a sense of jumping like the rapid switching of movie scenes. The texture of the whole poem is simple, and the girl's loneliness and boredom are immersed in it. The pleasant images in the memories vividly appeared on the paper.
