Appreciating Shu Ting s Evening The meaning of Shu Ting s modern poem Dusk .

Poetry may only play sensually when the mind is still.

Modern poetry is also called "vernacular poetry", and there is no need to translate its meaning.

I said that I heard a soft sound of footsteps behind me.

You say, it's the breeze kissing the path I've walked.

I said, "The stars are as colorful as flowers."

You say, it's my eyelashes that are covered in pollen.

I said, and the little Childies closed their sleepy eyes.

You say, nightshade has opened up layers of hearts again.

I say, it's a vibrant late spring.

You say, it's an enticing and intoxicating twilight.

Shu Ting's "Dusk" may not know many people, this author wrote in the eighties of the last century at dusk singing, is an absolutely famous absolutely not very famous but absolutely classic and absolutely beautiful traditional hazy poem, the female poet uses the writing skills of early symbolist poetry, each sentence has a specific object corresponding, literally, this poem can be understood at a glance, clear white paper and black words, but you can only understand the surface, if you don't imagine it, There is no idea what the author is trying to express, and this is the genius of symbolist poetry. She only allows you to read the surface of the text, but does not let you know the deep meaning of the author, and you have to generate your own associations through the surface of the objective counterpart she transmits to you, so as to complete a spiritual reading journey.

The "I" and "you" in the poem can be imagined as the author and her lover, or as her and a certain master, or the author and her world (we will temporarily assume that she is in dialogue with the soul of a certain master). "I said, I hear a soft sound of footsteps behind me."

Obviously, the poet is in extreme loneliness and loneliness, longing to be understood and noticed, so he has the psychological hallucination of "a gentle sound of feet behind him", and the master told her that this is just a "breeze kissing" you "walking path", and you are a hallucination under deep narcissism.

The following stars and ceremonial flowers, eyelashes and pollen are all in the same row of the previous sentence, and the author tries to achieve a different level of rendering the same theme, which is a more common expression technique in Shu Ting's poems and Picasso's paintings. Next, the author feels that he is "a little boy who has closed her sleepy eyes", it is simply narcissistic to the extreme, women, poetesses are women first and foremost, and the better the poetess, the more women. No one dared to marry the cold, so it was almost advertised, and I felt like a little daisy, and I was still drowsy, so the master told her, you are"Nightshade opens up layers of hearts again", and then further hinted to her, your flower season is no more, you are an amorous lonely nightshade, your dark fragrance although floating, but, it is nearly dusk.

The poetess was not willing to be restrained, she was still making a last stand, for her pink self-esteem and crooked dimples, she sang:"It's a vibrant late spring."

The difference between yin and yang and the difference in the senses of each other was on this, and the master could only return a helpless smile, telling her that whether you agree with it or not, you have to admit that you are just a "seductive and intoxicating twilight".

As a result, the dialogue between the soul of the poetess and the master, although sharp and almost cruel, has also achieved a modern symbolic version of the fine poem, a generation of talented poets in the twilight, the flowers are like flowers, the beauty of the stunning family is thorough, the out-of-print bankrupt, incorrigible.
