Background:
Rain Lane was written in the summer of 1927, after the bloody "April 12th" massacre. The poet was 22 years old. The poet who was arrested for joining the revolution was lost in pain in the face of the white terror that enveloped the whole country.
He lives in seclusion in a friend's house in Songjiang, Jiangsu Province, and chews on "Being the misery of China people in this era" and "Sitting at night listening to the wind and sleeping at night listening to the rain", hoping to float a gorgeous rainbow in the haze. But life is poor, and the poet can only seek comfort in "old footprints", "colorful clothes of youth" and wandering under the stars.
The softness of personality and the pressure of the times make Rain Lane a projection of reality darkness and disillusionment in the poet's mind, which is full of feelings of hesitation, disappointment and sadness.
