What are the shorter modern poems?

1, far and near is a poem by the obscure poet Gu Cheng. This poem looks ordinary, but it is intriguing.

you

Look back at me.

Look back at the clouds.

I think

You looked at me from a distance.

You observe the clouds up close.

Appreciation of works: Far and near express specific psychological and aesthetic interests, and the content is implicit, refined and profound. The first section is about "you" looking around. Section-2 is a unique feeling of writing "I" and an illusion of superficial form. Because since you can see me, it means that the distance between the two sides is not far, and the "cloud" is in the sky and out of reach with people. The poet reveals a psychological distance through appearances.

Although people are close at hand, there are various psychological barriers and insurmountable gaps, so they feel "far away". However, people and clouds, people and nature can exchange feelings, so they feel "close"-close and harmonious. The poet used symbolism to show the disharmony between psychological distance and physical distance, and expressed his pursuit and yearning for a good relationship between people.

Generation is a poem written by an unknown poet Gu Chengyu 1979 in Beijing. This poem is one of the representative works of obscure poetry in the new period, which is widely circulated.

The night gave me a pair of black eyes.

I use it to find the light.

Appreciation of works: There are only two sentences in the whole poem, and the images in the poem are very common phenomena in daily life: night, eyes and light. Because of this, this poem has a thoughtful charm. Two novel combinations, seemingly contradictory turning points, contain wonderful rationality.

This contradictory logic is the essence of these two short poems. This contradiction is on two levels.

The first level is that the overall image presentation of poetry is contrary to their presentation in people's daily experience. This mainly focuses on the image of the eyes. In the vast darkness, the eyes are the only light. In people's experience, eyes are always a symbol of transparency. However, the eyes in the poem are "black eyes".

This is the feeling in the poet's heart and the poet's profound reflection. This feeling is a heartbreaking pain, and it is an accumulation over time. This kind of reflection is heavy, and there is great fear behind it. And these all point to the "dark night"-the background of that era.

The second level of contradiction is the internal contradiction of poetry. This focuses on the image of "light". In such an era, such an environment, such a deep night, poets should look for light. The poet looked for light with his black eyes. This is the horn that poets use to resist the night. This level is also the theme of this poem: the poet should not only reflect on the dark past, pour out the pain in his heart, but also look for it.

Alley is a new poem written by modern poet Gu Cheng.

alley

It's curved and long.

There is no door

There are no windows.

I took an old key.

Knocking on the thick wall

Appreciation of works: The title of the poem is Alley, from which we might as well guess what must have happened in this alley that deeply bends into the poet's life. For Gu Cheng, who has always been beautiful, what happened in the alley must be a beautiful and sad story. It is this story that makes this poet unforgettable after many years.

However, this is an alley without doors/windows.

There is a door that a poet can open with a key. There are windows through which poets can break in. However, with the passage of time, these are impossible for poets. Despair, the first time.

However, the poet did not give up, and there was still a trace of desire in despair. So, "take an old key/knock on the thick wall." Originally, knocking on the wall with a key was suspected that the donkey's lips were not right for the horse's mouth, let alone an "old key." In just two lines, the poet's sadness and despair were pushed to the extreme.

4. Worry is a new poem by modern poet Dai Wangshu, which has two sections.

one

It is said that it is the sorrow of lonely autumn.

It is said that it is acacia in the far sea;

If someone asks me what I'm worried about,

I dare not say your name.

Secondly,

I dare not say your name:

If someone asks me what I'm worried about,

They all say it's acacia in the far sea.

It is said to be the sadness of lonely autumn.

Appreciation of works: The above four sentences, just 36 words, vividly depict the author's deep homesickness, fierce struggle, the taste of "want to talk about it" and unforgettable acacia, which is both meaningful and strong.

The following four sentences, the above four sentences are reversed. They are rough and seemingly palindrome poems, but when you think about them, they are not simple repetitions, nor mysterious postures, but the author's endless and increasingly surging thoughts are indulged and vented. The first sentence is like repetition and truth, and the connection and care are impenetrable. Although it is a fierce and contradictory "dare not say".

The hope of talking is so urgent. Here, the author provides us with a broad imagination space, and you might as well have a perceptual fugue here. The whole poem ends with "clearing the sorrow", but it properly expresses the unusual way for mature thinkers to express their complex mentality with the saying "good autumn and good cool air"

5. Xiao Hong's Tomb Account is a mourning poem written by modern poet Dai Wangshu in 1944.

After six hours of lonely journey,

Put a bunch of camellia on your head,

I waited for the long night,

You are lying and listening to Haitao's gossip.

The title of this poem is "Oral Occupation", which seems to have been seen by the poet in the cemetery. It was written in words without long thinking and brewing. Looking at the title of the poem and then at the poem itself, there are only four lines. There are neither painful words nor traces of tears, which gives people a very weak impression. If we know the special and unfortunate experiences of the poet and undertaker Xiaohong, we will have different feelings.

Appreciation of the work: "A Long and Lonely Journey of Six Hours", the poem rises slowly. Without too much description and embellishment, it is extremely simple and natural. "Six hours" means a long time, and "long distance" means a long distance. "Loneliness" is not only the poet's actual feelings at that time and here, but also a true portrayal of the poet's long-term mood. By extension, it is not the cause of Xiao Hong's misfortune.

The second line "wearing a bunch of camellia on your head" brings a touch of bright color to the poem. Xiao Hong loves flowers and often writes all kinds of flowers in her works. Sending a bouquet of bright camellia now is the greatest comfort to the deceased.

The artistic characteristics of this poem are as follows: the poem expresses ambition, simple and vivid; The narrative is concise, but it can naturally express delicate and profound feelings.
