Son of Jinggang: Hu Gangyi
——Say a few words for Hu Gangyi's poetry collection "Everyone is a Moving Tree"
Yuan Ying
Who is the son of Jinggang?
Broadly speaking, there is no doubt that all boys who were born and raised in Jinggangshan and who have lived, worked, and fought in the Jinggangshan area can be called sons of Jinggang by themselves or by others.
In a narrow sense, it may be only those who have shed blood, sweat and tears for Jinggangshan, and those who have integrated their entire lives into the grass and trees of Jinggangshan, who are qualified to bear these four words without shame.
I thought that Hu Gangyi belonged to the latter.

His parents were the first young builders to go up the mountain from their hometown of Hunan in response to the party's call in the late 1950s, spilling their youth and enthusiasm on this red land. In the current term, it is a young volunteer. Fortitude was born in the face of the red cuckoo blooming on Jinggang Mountain and grew up drinking the clear stream of Jinggang Mountain. Jinggangshan gave birth to him, raised him, fed him, tempered him, enriched him, and urged him to become a veritable son of Jinggangshan.
From 1960 to the present, I have been fortunate to go up Jinggangshan four times. In 1991, he met Gang Yi for the third time, and since then he has formed a friendship for many years. Using the word "forget the year" is a bit of a dependence on the old and selling the old, but it is the truth. I went up the mountain for the first time in 1960, and I was not yet born. For ten years, every time I think of Jinggangshan, I immediately think of a figure who is lean and enthusiastic. In my memory, his image seems to be embedded in the mountains of pines and bamboo, the waterfalls and the colorful rhododendrons, which is the most appropriate and appropriate position. From time to time, I read the newsletter that Gang Yi wrote for the newspaper as a propagandist in Jinggangshan, and read his poems about Jinggangshan and other contents, and this impression was even stronger. His youth, his joys and sorrows, and his ingenuity have all turned into a wisp of poetry, all woven into this brilliant and colorful picture of Jinggangshan, which is inseparable and inseparable. Without Jinggangshan, there would be no Hu Gangyi. If Gang Yi is not in Jinggangshan, but in Hengyang's hometown, in Changsha, Nanchang, Wuhan or elsewhere, he will also shine, and he will also reflect his own value in poetry or other aspects, but he will definitely not be able to write this collection of poems.
The poems of fortitude are full of aura, and their agility stems from the deep and persistent pursuit of love for all things in nature. Reading his poems, whether it is spring breeze and spring scenery, autumn moon and autumn cicadas, summer clouds and summer rain, winter moon Qi Han, or the sun, moon and stars, big rivers and streams, dead trees in the soil, flying flowers and butterflies, all enter the customs, make people fly away from the tent, and sing endlessly. I just want to say that the poem of fortitude is the candlelight of the heart of love, and its speculative words of enlightenment, that is, like a small grass, are indispensable to that purity.
Writing this, the drizzle outside the window is long, and there seems to be some chill on the body. At this time, the resolute phone happened to come, listening to his familiar voice, suddenly covered with a layer of kindness. Having been associated with Gang Yi for more than ten years, as a human being, he is sincere and pure nature, and belongs to the kind of indifference that is far away from the world. Talking about this, I think of the verse he wrote in "The Cow"—
Generous friends
Honest partner
The pupils are always reflected
Ochre yellow dirt and people
Another example is his poem "Shortcuts":
He's because of his cleverness
Lost her
I'm stupid because of my stupidity
Gained love
The creek runs through the mountains and streams
Fall off a cliff to become a waterfall
Is it me?
However, my meaning does not seem to be fully expressed, it should be said that fortitude is just like a red maple leaf, although it is not completely red, but in the heart, in the late autumn, when the frost falls, when the trees are mostly withered, in the yellow and green mottles, this maple leaf, with a crimson bright color, reflects the heart. For more than ten years, I have only remembered the sincerity, enthusiasm and integrity of this young friend and his beautiful heart.
With a resolute gaze focused on the real world, he persistently pursued the true meaning of life.
Do you want to be sweet for a lifetime?
Learn from sugar cane!
Take a steep upward road
……
A positive and enterprising heart jumped on the paper. He was also often caught up in the pain of contemplation, and his upright, upright, and jealous personality made him scaled by the cold reality. From poems such as "Little Man Like a Barnyard Hiding in the Middle of Rice", he expressed his anxiety by giving hope to the winner of the confrontation between good and evil:
The life force of barnyard grass is twenty times stronger than that of straw
Another example is the verse of "The Story of the Lotus":
Rumors
It is the seeds of evil
O people's hearts
Is it its fertile soil?
Full of sorrow and indignation, it is an indictment of blood and tears. His poetic inspiration is like a sky full of stars, disappointment and regret for real life, but more is love, the pursuit of truth, beauty and goodness. It is these things that make his poems flash with affection for nature, for human beings, for life, and for love.
The second collection of poems by Gang Yi was edited and published by the Poetry Journal (the first collection of poems was "Life and the Sea"), and I was happy for him. Fortitude poetry is like its own person, fresh and natural, subtle, simple and unpretentious, but it contains simple, natural and deep beauty. His poems are rich in imagination, written in terms of objects, exquisitely constructed, and deeply elegant. He abandons those poems whose content and intention are divorced from the times and the masses, and whose language and techniques are obscure and mysterious, and take a fresh, healthy and clear creative path.
This is the style of Jinggangshan, the temperament of Jinggangshan, and the beauty of Jinggangshan.
Fortitude is still young, "Everyone is a walking tree" This is a heartfelt passage of his glory years. What will happen to him after the age of forty-three? What other way would his emotions, his words, his speculative mind be expressed? This is what I have been waiting for with great joy.
Gang Yi named his book of poems "Everyone is a Walking Tree", which has his own meaning, his expectation, and his pursuit. He is a small stream, turning a thousand times, out of the mountains and streams, into the rough rivers, and finally to the vast sea. Jinggangshan is his hometown, and the sea is his home. He once had this verse:
Thoughts drift into the rapids of the rivers
Transform into a fish
Go into the deep water and listen to the waves
Walk in the footprints of the river
The sea is just ahead
The thoughts and feelings here are pure, the language is simple, there is no ambition, no arrogance, no waves, some are sincere and profound. He only "turns himself into a fish", even if it is a small fish, as long as he identifies the target and swims forward step by step, he can swim into the sea, no matter how far the sea is. Even if it is a small mountain spring, as long as it finally merges into the sea, it will get eternal life.

On the left is Jiang Zi, and on the right is Hu Gangyi
Singer of the mountain
Jiang Zi
Before I first met Fortitude, I thought that others would be like his name, a Shandong Han who sang the wind with an iron plate, and his expression would be awe-inspiring but powerful. And meet, but it is a face with annual rings rolling by, full of fairy tale light sense, and the sorrow of a young monk, like an ink painting on rice paper dyed yellow over the years, where the pen is walked, the ink color is as fresh as ever, the landscape and smoke clouds, the terroir and the sky, and the aura is surging.
It is the aura of poetry.
Gang Yi has been writing poetry for more than ten years and is a devout poet. He was born in Jinggangshan, grew up in Jinggangshan, and worked in Jinggangshan, and his body and mind were deeply contaminated and nourished by Jinggangshan. He chose poetry and this famous mountain of historical charm and natural charm for a dialogue of life and soul. In other words, he used Jinggangshan as the "matrix" to carry out his thinking on history, life and the pursuit of great beauty. He is a singer of Jinggangshan.
Five hundred miles of Jinggang Mountain, with its unique cultural connotation and natural landscape, stand majestically between heaven and earth. She is an immortal bone held up in the palm of history. The cradle and the holy place are the nirvana of suffering, and the grand chapters and songs written in blood are inked.
The inheritance and contemplation of the spirit of Jinggang by Gang Yi have been transformed into poetry, and there are "Jinggang Road" and "Monument" and other articles. His simple and wood-stacked verses reveal the poet's enthusiastic praise and praise for the spirit of Jinggang, as well as the inquiry into history itself, full of the heat of the flame. At the same time, Jinggangshan, as an "excellent tourist city in China", is a natural life body full of aura, and every grass and tree, flower and stone on the mountain contains the essence of life. Growing up on Jinggang Mountain, he was like a transparent child, with a full love for the mountain, a keen and multi-sensory heart and a unique poetic eye to feel Jinggang Mountain, and everything on the mountain was like a living thing in his eyes. In his poems, "Summer is a child / Spelling the letters of green leaves all day long" ("Four Seasons in the Mountains"), Yamamezi's "Eyes are black and bright / Black as two mountain fruits / The boys all want to pick / The mountain spring also loves to hug her smile" ("Love"), The mountain man's "Shoulder blade is the brother of the rock / And he is younger than the rock" ("He is younger than the rock"), and the mountain stream "snuggles to the rock next to him / Whispering" ("The Creek"). Words are like pearls, sentences are like streams, and everything is ink. His poems are fresh and transparent, not stained with dust.
Fortitude's poems also describe nature, childhood, and family affection, such as his narrative poem "To the Sister of the Nine Springs", which is written sincerely and mournfully; his "Forever Braid", which triggers the remembrance of the adolescent time and the yearning for beautiful emotions by a braid; and "Lotus Sister", through the depiction of the lotus flower background, makes the beauty and poignant fate of a mountain woman jump on the paper, touching deeply. Fortitude writes history, life, life, nature through Jinggangshan...
He was a singer of the mountains, always singing with sorrow in the night when the stars were dense and the moon was hanging obliquely, with the voice washed by the mountain spring.
The poem of fortitude is a mountain flower in the folds of the mountain, a mountain wind blowing over the mountain flower, and a mountain spring that is gently blown by the mountain wind. In the spring water, it is a pure stone as a tranquil virgin, a moonlight that shines through the flowing water, and the soft sound of the moonlight flowing on the leaves, like a bamboo flute playing alone at the water's edge. His poems are hardly carved. He was the kind of singer who had never put on makeup, singing the song of his heart in the quiet valley, like a natural song, stirring up the echoes of life in the mountains.
Of course, if we are demanding fortitude, his poems are still insufficient: some poems do not give our souls the hidden pain of impact, less majestic atmosphere... Fortitude is a hard-working poet and a devout poet. As long as you love poetry, as long as you work hard, it is not difficult to overcome these. "There is no victory at all, and holding on means everything!" Fortitude does not have the utilitarian interest of winning with others, and there is no hardship and sorrow to stand up. Poetry is not a weapon for him, but a bamboo flute across his mouth, and he enjoys it in poetry. Only poetry is immortal in his heart, like a candle, like the eternal braid in his heart!

The song of the stream of life that crosses the canyon
- Reading Hu Gangyi's poems
Zhang Xizhen
You don't see the clear stream that runs through the mountains and valleys, how it flows and flies into various colored notes. Sometimes it flows with the flow, babbling and singing; sometimes it turns into a fountain and whispers and chants; sometimes it turns into a waterfall with great pride; sometimes it accumulates into a pool, turns into a deep, and then gushes out. Along the way, it photographed the majesty of the mountain and the ridge of the rock, the wind and bone of the tree and the beauty of the bamboo, the greenery of the grass and the red of the flowers, and the various silhouettes of the elven creatures in the mountain, and all of them were integrated into the songs and chants of the years they had walked, until they ran to the vast sea in the distance.
As early as the early 1980s, Hu Gangyi began to write poetry, and has been climbing the rugged mountain road of poetry for more than 20 years. When he was in college, he became fascinated by poetry, and he often said: "Poetry makes people dexterous, and poetry makes people noble." "I often carry a notebook to the library, and in the garden of poetry, be a diligent bee." Together with local poetry friends Huang Xiaoyuan, Wang Junjie, Liu Guangming, Xia Binbin, He Xiaolin, Luo Qichao, etc., he successively established the "Rucui Lake Poetry Society", the "Spruce" Literary Society, and the "Saturday Poetry Journal", making friends with many poets, repeatedly exchanging poetry and art, and promoting each other's improvement. He believes that there is poetry everywhere in life, there are gold mines of art everywhere, and "life is not a lack of beauty, but a lack of discovery." In the creation of poetry, he resolutely abandons hypocrisy, frivolity, and sensationalism, and regards poetry as a flow of aura, an abstraction of time and space, the fusion of multiple themes and the intersection of artistic conception, and strives to pursue the ideological beauty, implicit beauty, conceptual beauty, and rhythmic beauty of poetry, and firmly follows the path of fresh, clear, and healthy creation.
Reading Hu Gangyi's poems, you can always feel a surging and flowing vigorous and vigorous passion and poetry in his poems, so that people can't help but have such an impression and association: it is like listening to the song of the stream of life that crosses the canyon. In his creative career of more than ten years, the poet has published more than 800 poems, appeared in the "Poetry Journal", entered the "Selected Poems", and published the poetry collection "Life and the Sea". Recently, his poems have been selected for "2007 Chinese Poetry of the Year", "2007 Chinese Poetry Selection", "2007 Chinese Poetry Annual Selection", "White Paper on Chinese New Poetry (1999-2002)" and "Selected Chinese Poetry", and have won many awards such as the Fifth Guyu Literature Award of Jiangxi Province, and in 2007, he was honored to join the Chinese Writers Association. And some essays have been selected into the "Selected Essays", "Selected Essays of Jiangxi Modern and Contemporary", "Jiangxi Prose Collection (Tenth Anniversary)" and so on. His creative momentum is still booming, and there are new works coming out from time to time, only because he has the source of living water in his heart...
Looking at his poetry collection "Life and the Sea" and its new works, it seems that most of them are modern poetry. Xinyi may be closely related to the "big piece of good articles of heaven and earth" in Jinggangshan, where he grew up and loved, but it should be more due to the nature of the poet.
The poet's heart is always sensitive and flexible, they are accustomed to getting close to and listening to life in the natural landscape, and the poem is just like a clear water flowing from the spring of his heart that shakes the clouds of the sky. Since ancient times, natural landscapes have been the soul of poets and the place of spiritual destination. Landscapes, landscapes, grasses, trees, insects, fish, etc., are all written in poetry by the poet: the nature or pride of the people who love the landscape, or the clouds and mist, or the wind and clouds, or the cliffs and super-plucking. Tao Yuanming's realm of selflessness, Wang Wei's realm of poetry and painting, Liu Zongyuan's landscape aesthetics, the Wuran art realm of the Bada Shan people, and the poetic tradition of feeling in the Lingfu have a long history. However, compared with the classical poetry of poetry, which pays attention to the beauty of the artistic conception, Hu Gangyi's poems not only inherit the traditional landscape imagery, but also give nature a modern rhyme and style. In his pen, nature is the poetic call of life, and life is the living language of nature. Landscape objects are attached to the consciousness of life, realizing the fusion with modern sensibility and radiating the spiritual light of art.
Nature awakens the poet's inner feelings, and the inner feelings then capture the imagery in nature, and the production of the image resurrects the language, which becomes poetry. This process is the process by which nature gives life language in the name of poetry. Hu's chants show such a generation process and expressive characteristics. The cicada is "a little piccolo in summer / by the trees / in the mouth of the green leaves / blowing endlessly" (Cicada). Imagination is flexible and natural, the language is interesting, and it is full of inner music. In a sense, nature is the natural oxygen of the senses, and the imagery is the skin and posture of the feelings. You see the tip of the bamboo shoot that burst out in the spring rain as if "imprisoned in the ground / As if a century has finally been / Sharp little mouth / Choke a drop of spring rain." Suddenly/quenched a winter's thirst. ("Bamboo Shoots") and this cute and revealing bamboo shoot tip also seems to quench the thirst of our readers' long-thirsted hearts. The author is longer than the permutation combination of a group of images, forming an implicit potential with a group of sentence patterns that are arranged, contrasted, and passed, advancing layer by layer on the poem, always leaving an echo, a throbbing, a sweet fragrance, and a touch of laughter at the end. For example, "Dark clouds are hidden in the sun/... There is a hidden reef in the sea / There is a thorn hidden in my love. It was/A heart-wrenching pain that I could never pull out in my life. ("Pain")," "Woolly Chestnut", juxtaposing the sun and the originally unrelated imagery, looking for a mysterious blood relationship, making clever associations and comparisons, giving birth to a unique and unfamiliar situation. In fact, the image itself is to create a strange language image at the same time, but also to break the language barrier and communicate the common feeling of human beings. The meaning of the image is preserved here. In his poems, such a set of images as dark clouds and the sun often appear, and the contrast between the gloomy clouds and the hot heat of the sun hints at darkness and light, which contains the heart of a poet who grew up in Jinggangshan, the cradle of the revolution, a rushing soul full of ideal passion, and also contains an emotion, psychology, and personality full of contradictions and conflicts, and also symbolizes a way of existence of life. Commenting on the imagery of the sun in Ai Qing's poem, Tang Tao said: "Everyone's life, whether intelligent or stupid, whether happy or unhappy, as long as he leaves the mother's body, he opens his eyes to look for light. "I think the same can be understood for Hu Gangyi's poems!"
If it is said that the main stationing of this kind of chant poem is the poet's true nature and true feelings, then other chant poems reveal the light of the poet's imagination and conception of the intellect of the "image outside the image", so that philosophy also becomes another feature of his chant poem. Poetry has always triumphed with love, and love is the soul of poetry. In fact, poetry is not only the manifestation of the poet's life emotions and momentary inspiration, but also the divine light of the mysterious combination of thinking and form embodied in his intellectual speculation. Writing in poetry requires more of a rational or abstract imagination, pursuing the truth of a thought in fantasy, and at the same time giving tension to language. For example, "A blue dragonfly died / died in front of a transparent glass window / ... Crashing into a glass that was harder and colder than a wall / Crashing into a glass that was more deceptive than a dark cloud / ... / She is dead, with big blue eyes that can't be closed / Still looking at the sweet peach-like sky in a daze..." ("A Blue Dragonfly Is Dead") The poem overflows with a kind of bright and dignified melancholy and sorrow. In fact, people are often not like the blue dragonfly, and the soul that longs for freedom is often imprisoned by a false heart prison that flaunts freedom, but this heart prison is not only the glass outside, but also the illusion created by one's own heart. Another example is "The Secret", from a vine that climbs up along a straight trunk to the "trumpet flower / Go around / Broadcast the secret of its success" hanging on the top of the tree, as a metaphor for mocking the speculative driller who takes the "shortcut" in reality. The abstract philosophical nature of the author's poetry is also expressed in another type of "rebound pipa" style of poetry. The so-called "rebound pipa" is just a metaphor for transpositional reverse thinking. For example, in the anti-chant "Kingfisher", the kingfisher is a "spirit of beauty" with a "unique jade", "the stomach bag is filled with gluttony, a long pointed beak / the calm that breaks the fish pond again and again / The mirror is broken / Who is hurt by a pile of glass chips?" Sensual imagery is skillfully stitched with rational imagination. "Chess" is an unconventional pro-coach, ridiculing "the whole chessboard / the supreme manager lives the most", "its life has become a common burden for everyone / Victory is not its credit / Losing Xu is a relief?" Sharp eyes and unique insights. In fact, any deep truth is hidden under the superficial surface, and the key lies in whether you have insight or not. In a sense, the "rebound pipa" is a kind of thinking aesthetic that can produce a multiplicative poetic flavor. Of course, this has to play well in the first place.
The remarkable difference between our poet's poetry and other poetry is that it is based on the famous mountain of revolutionary history, Jinggangshan, as the background, so that it can be inspired by this magical red land, and the content, style and sentiment of the work are "like its qi, all should be its kind". The poem always reflects the red background, dotting the smoke clouds of history, always revealing the revolutionary passion, the vicissitudes of history and the leisurely affection for the mountain people born and raised in Sri Lanka. This is concentrated in the series of "Jinggang Road", such as "Jinggang Road", "A Green Pine", "Stone Mill", "Well", as well as "Years in the Mountains", "People in the Mountains" and other series of group poems. The poet is like a bard in this land, singing the endless prayers and true feelings in his heart with a slightly frosted voice, and with the "Gaze of the Man in the Mountains", it extends like a bend of streams and valleys, "out of the mountains / Becomes a river / Becomes a river / Becomes a turquoise / Rushing waves of the sea." ”
Not only poetry, but also Hu Gangyi's narrative poems and colloquial poems are also written with special charm. From the poet's creative confessions, we know that he was interested in narrative poetry when he began to write poetry, and made some attempts with interest, and in the later parts of the recent works, he more consciously realized the turn from pure lyricism to narrative and description. This echoes a kind of "narrative poetics" and "oral poetics" that appeared in the avant-garde poetry of the 1990s: changing the identity function of the poet, making it possible to separate the identity of the lyricist and the identity of the narrator, thereby extending the tentacles of exploration in a broader spiritual space; correcting the relationship between poetry and reality and the self, wedging the narrative into the poetry, and making it possible for the poetry to move from a private monologue to an external public discourse.
Narrative poetry blurs the boundaries of poetry and expands more dimensions of poetry creation. This is a free stretch of poetic style, and it also wins more space for the language of poetry, and this way of speaking itself has an aesthetic significance, which is the construction of another poetic space. Hu Gangyi's narrative poems or reminiscing about old events, or sketching characters, narrative is its form, the bones are still lyrical, and the narrative is also a poetic narrative. The poet's heart always lingers more emotionally on the passage of life and time than ordinary people, and the remembrance of the first love is always the green land in the poet's heart. The memory of the innocent era is the unquenchable dream in the heart, and the poem is the foot of the dream, and you can always meet it gently at a casual moment. "The Covenant to the Plums" is also the Covenant of Love, "The green plums are sour and the teeth are sour and the heart is sour / Who remembers your infatuation / The mouth is no longer thirsty?" The beautiful and cheerful beat tells a slightly shy, longing and dreamy first love story. Shyness is beautiful, and tenderness underneath it is even more beautiful. The poet withdraws from the emotional field of personal whispering, enters the stories of others in life, and thus discovers the warm and simple poetry in it. The "Summer Girl" "had a simple dream / Went to the small river to take a bath / And her footprints / Did not dare to burn on the river bank / A foot socket / Sheng YiWang's grievances / Looking at the ducks in the river / Loach-like boy / The little girl couldn't sleep at night / Turned around". The shyness, trepidation, confusion and confusion of young boys and girls when they first sprout are described as well-behaved, moving and cute. Or sink into the depths of memory and salvage the fragments of time. Once for the long braid cut in the heart, "my heart fell a snow / fell the biggest snow in my life", the seeds of first love such as the deep buried green fruit did not dare to pick, many years later, this "gold skeleton jade carved my memory!" / But you forgot..." The poet chews on the sorrow and sorrow of the heart in the folds of memory with his calm and transparent narrative tone. That "Forever Braid" is an ancient and nostalgic dream in the depths of a person's memory, which looks beautiful and hazy because of the distance between a period of time, and because it is easy to wake up and pass away, it is even more sad. Presumably, dreams are dreams after all, and it is inevitable to be sad when you do more. In addition, sketching characters in the form of poetry is also another valuable attempt at his writing. Poetry turns into a spoken, everyday, life-like, detailed, and human narrative, starting from the feeling of daily life, and deeply penetrates poetic brushstrokes into ordinary villains and small things, such as "Wang Sangen, The Lonely Man" and "The Death of a Villager", and explores the warmth of life and the poetry of existence in them. Or go deep into the dark areas of life with compassionate brushstrokes, such as "The Story of the Lotus Flower" that illuminates the shadow of death with the warm shimmer of poetry.
There are also some "colloquial poems" in the poet's recent works, which are characterized by their colloquial daily writing, and the language is more relaxed, concise, and plain than lyrical poetry without being burdened. It fades the color of the passion ideal, and finds verses in the things around it. It rejects metaphor, symbolism, and imagery, and does not hesitate to focus on fragmentary life with trivial narratives. For example, the lengthy traffic jam caused by "A Truck Suddenly Broke Down on the Road" is associated with "a road is like a snake paralyzed by being hit by seven inches", and by focusing on the driver's inner complaints, anger, helplessness, and disappointment, it expresses the poet's irony and ridicule of boring, mediocre, and boring life. Sometimes, a fortuitous event can trigger the poet's associations and feelings, such as "Cold is not prevented from being splashed with sewage" from a casual accident in the daily road, associated with "in life / I am often cold and do not prevent being splashed with sewage / and the laughing driver and miss are often not strangers." It expresses a kind of embarrassment and chagrin in the poet's life, and turns to reflection. "Weekend, Who Can I Call" expresses the boredom and boredom of no one to accompany the pastimes on weekends in a self-talking way, and the deep is the feeling of distance, diaphragm and even closure between people in modern society. In fact, not only is there a wall between people, but why not between man and nature? And this wall is caused by man's wanton trampling on nature, and the poem "I want to call some forgotten phone numbers" reflects the poet's ecological consciousness of modernity and the concern for the protection of the entire human homeland.
If poetry is a dance of human spiritual resonance, it is only one side of it; on the other hand, there is an "incongruous" relationship between poetry and reality, that is, poetry exposes the truth of life and dwarfs reality in front of it, while spoken poetry intervenes in life in its colloquial way of writing, reversing the light of poetry. However, colloquial poetry is also prone to slip people's emotional lack of astray because it is too close to the surface of reality, which leads to the indifference of ethereal poetry and rich and delicate poetry, and even deviates from the original meaning of poetry, falling into the quagmire of daily "nagging" and making boring words piled up. Presumably, our poets not only attach importance to the former, but also have vigilance against the latter.
The famous writer and poet Yuan Ying called Comrade Gang Yi: "The text is like its person, simple and unpretentious, subtle, exquisitely constructed, and elegant and profound." "He is pursuing this goal and creative style relentlessly. He turned his youth and brilliant intellect into wisps of poetry, and the whole was integrated into the magnificent picture of the holy land of Jinggang. In January 2001, he walked down Jinggangshan and came to the newly established Qingyuan District at the foot of Jinggangshan Mountain, and began a new journey. Poets often promise themselves with a stream flowing from the mountains, which is a mountain stream that is not willing to be lonely, loves to run, and never stops, and its ultimate pursuit and destination is to run to the vast and magnificent eternal sea, only by not stopping to run, life can splash out a gorgeous wave. In his poem "Meditations", he wrote: "Thoughts plunge into the river / Turn into a fish / Go to the water and listen quietly to the sound of the waves / Walk on the footprints of the river / The sea is just ahead..."

The poetic pursuit of everyday life
——Hu Gangyi's poetry theory
Gong Quering
Daniel Bell argues in The Cultural Contradictions of Capitalism that society is entering the era of visual culture, and Jameson also believes that the entire culture is undergoing a revolutionary change from language-centered to visual-centered, and that visual-centered mass culture has begun to change people's experience and way of thinking and imagining. And this kind of mass culture in the era of reading pictures conspires with the survival anxiety of secular life to dissolve our passions and change the individual's cognition and understanding of the world, life, and experience. Therefore, under this background, we have to endure the grinding of the experience of survival and the dissolution of the passion for meaning, the pursuit of worldly vulgarity and the difficult struggle of life in daily life, and the exquisite lyricism has long become a fragment of history under the implantation of the picture of modernity. However, in the absence of lyricism and poetry, there are still many writers and poets who use their independent style to penetrate the eyelashes of life and express the poetic emotions and poetic imaginations that have long been missing. The Jiangxi poet Hu Gangyi is undoubtedly one of them, he sang beautiful lyrical songs with healthy and handsome language and pure and simple imagery, and successively published many poems in newspapers and periodicals such as "People's Daily", "Guangming Daily", "Poetry Journal", "Selected Poems", published poetry collections "Life and the Sea", "Everyone is a Moving Tree" and so on. Overall, his poems are flexible and pure, fresh and handsome, full of philosophy and interest, showing the poet's love and pursuit of life, life, nature, and truth, goodness and beauty.
Liu Xunyun: "The seven emotions of human nature, the sense of things, the sense of things, can not be natural." When people are stimulated by external objects, they produce emotions, so emotions are moved in the middle and form in words, "in the heart for the aspiration, speech for the poem" ("Mao Shi Preface"), through the poetic language of singing out this emotion. Hu Gangyi grew up under the red soil and green mountains and clear water of Jinggang Mountain, the tenacity of the red soil, the green mountains, the softness of the clear water cultivated his poetry, the benevolent Leshan, the wise Leshan, under the shade of the landscape and the earth, he combined the nature of all things, the character of spring, summer, autumn and winter in the main mood and narrative object of the poem, wrote a lot of beautiful lyric poems, bees, trees, rivers, spring, stars, chrysanthemums, birdsong, rivers, earth, sun, wind, seeds and other cosmic things have become the poet's colorful poetic imagery elements. It can be said that the poet Hu Gangyi mobilized time, space, life, matter, emotions, etc. in poetic language, and presented subtle, simple, euphemistic and varied beautiful emotions and instantaneous feelings with condensed lines of poetry. Thus, the natural things in the poem also become the candlelight of the personified love of the heart, and the joys and sorrows of daily life become more spiritual in the poetic pursuit, highlighting the wisdom of philosophy. "The Story of a Tree" superficially describes the growth of a tree in an anthropomorphic and symbolic way, but in essence it is a lyrical description of the Chinese nation that has been reproduced for thousands of years, no matter the blood, rain, wind and frost, no matter the cold and heat, the tree is strong and survives in the wilderness: "The ring of the bark is sealed in a circle / A heavy chronicle of the family is recorded", and it is a philosophical hint that expresses the poet's devotion to the roots of the nation. Poets use their delicate brushstrokes and poetic language to grasp every detail of daily life, "Clouds", "A Bird Song", "Measurement", "Pull Out", "Breathe", "Reed Broom", "Cooking Smoke", and other poems present dramatic situations through figurative actions, and then present poetic philosophical thoughts in the humble places of daily life. "Everyone is a walking tree" is even more full of expression of the flexible, full of personality of the individual, with a youthful passion to sing the steadfastness of love and the joy of life: "Every tree is a singer, when the lips of love are like a needle / kiss on the inner record, spring will come", reading this poem always reminds people of Shu Ting's "To the Oak Tree". The author also exposes the ugliness of human nature in poems such as "Little Man Like Barnyard Grass Hiding in the Middle of Rice And Grass" and "The Story of the Lotus Flower", especially the indictment of "villain" and "rumor", showing the character of the main body of the poem, who is upright, straight, jealous and hateful. Therefore, in poems such as "Water Ah Water", "Chrysanthemum", "Cow", "Flying Flower", "On the River of Flowers", "Plum" and other poems, the poet not only criticizes that cowardice and disdain, but also praises the heavy-bearing cow and bee, the upright water image that is not afraid of the cold tide, and the plum blossom. It can be said that Hu Gangyi loves his life and poetry, constructs the joys and sorrows of real life and secular life in the form of poetry, and integrates the experience and perception of the world, life, and life into the creation of poetry, and glues the imagery and details in the transformation of thinking, and then penetrates the philosophical consciousness and enlightenment charm in the analogy between things, scenes and human nature, so that the text becomes the ideal sustenance for the poet's own feelings.

The praise of love and the longing of friends are a major direction of the poet's creation. It is true that the core of Chinese poetry creation for thousands of years is love, whether it is the ancient "Book of Poetry" or the contemporary Shu Ting's "To the Oak Tree", love, as the core of the happiest human being, has become the source and totem of Chinese literature, and has also formed a mode of love writing, that is, to express love in a way that is directly lyrical. The poet Hu Gangyi also likes to write about love, but his lyricism is different from the traditional writing of direct lyricism, and he often conveys and compares the beauty of love and the subtle mentality of love through figurative solid-state methods and lively and flexible details as a carrier. For example, "Ride on a Spring Scooter" "Drives to the Love Terminal of Snowflakes", while "Groundhog" conveys the shyness and trembling of love with a figurative rhetoric, and the poet vividly expresses the delicate complex state of mind when love is sweet through the details of the figurative groundhog. And his "Ice", "Striking Iron", "Small Plants To Break Out of the Ground" and so on are all conveying the delicate state of love through such a delicate stroke. "A Kind of Fire" (Poetry Journal, No. 1, 2009) conveys a kind of arduous responsibility and the promise of love, and the poet first shows his point of view: "Love, it is really tired, really bitter and really difficult!" Then through the arduous coal miners' process of coal mining, the reader is shown the persistence of these workers to work hard for the good life of their families and their love for their families: "Drag a basket of black coal / Give it to a pair of black eyes / To light a fire / To heat a lifetime / In the ashes of this fire extinguished / The fruit is born!" This "fire" is undoubtedly the fire of "love", the love for relatives, the love for family, the love for wives, this is a responsibility and obligation of coal miners to work hard at risk, and the poet expresses his praise for the coal diggers' responsibility to uphold love. And "A Confidant Who Touches My Heartbeat Day and Night" expresses the main body's "I" misses her relatives and lovers and her gratitude to the magnetic card through the lyricism of the telephone magnetic card: "When she goes out, she is the window for me to look at the cooking smoke in my hometown, / It is the bridge between my heart and heart with my parents and my wife and daughter", "How many clouds greet, the whisper of the wind, / The news of thunder and lightning, the tide of the sea, / She is passing, like an untidy, / Marathon runner running on the line of Guanshan Yaoyao. "A Book of Chance Encounters with Old Friends on the Street" expresses the excitement of "I" meeting old friends: "Firmly grasp the old friend who does not want to let go / Afraid that he will mysteriously disappear again / The years when the clouds are deep and unknown." Life exists in the hometown, between relatives and friends, as a lingering real existence has become the shadow of human existence, in the hometown entrusted us to extend our future, walk alone in a foreign country, but our roots will always soar under the bright blue sky of the homeland, relatives and friends.
Moreover, poetry is often the author's rational cognition of objective things into a mirror language that penetrates the consciousness of real experience and cultural imagination, and becomes the carrier of poetic and soul dialogue, in order to convey the subject's self-conscious modern experience and emotional feelings, and there is also the lyricism of the material speech. As a result, lyrical emotional rendering, visual pleasure and reading pleasure obtain a kind of plump blending and self-consistency in experience, so that Hu Gangyi's poetry persistently constructs a poetic realm full of charm, and then obtains the epiphany and tranquility of subjectivity, and poetic inhabitation and earth. The language is also extremely simple and concise, often using white drawings and analogous rhetoric to express the spiritual connection between all things and people. "Spring" is written with great vigor and happiness, Shelley said: "Winter is coming, will spring be far away", Gu Shiyun "Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet", the revival of all things, the footsteps of the universe together let spring come to our world, spring rain, frozen melting is the witness, and bees, butterflies, wildflowers, spring wind, geese, seeds, etc. are hints of spring tide, they have opened the journey of life, from the dormant winter into the warm spring of the bright style, all rejoicing. The last sentence is a stroke of god, pushing the poem to a climax: "Spring tide / spring tide is fluctuating in each of our hearts, surging with passion", with the direct lyrical chest of nature to suggest the psychological state of people as the subject of nature when facing spring, expressing the poet's love for nature and love for life, and writing a brilliant sunny spring world with extremely delicate brushstrokes. The poem is transmitted poetically through daily experience, so that "spring" is gradually anthropomorphized and metaphorically made under the poet's pen, and eventually becomes an independent subject of personification. "Autumn" is written the most diluted ethereal, the world of autumn is gentle and beautiful, quiet and slightly sentimental, although the maple leaves are red and the autumn fruits fall, although it is a mature expression, it is also a harbinger of the end of the autumn line: "The stack of loneliness of the mountains / The calm place has been lying quietly into the palm of the winter / The cold and warm of the reincarnation", reading this poem, always reminds me of Xu Zhimo's "Farewell to Kangqiao", the cosmic object is anthropomorphized and action-oriented in the poem, full of fatalistic life contemplation, and the humanized action is so gentle and meticulous, The mood is so feminine, the whole poem is poetic, quiet and beautiful. Just as Wang Guowei's "Words and Sayings on Earth" has clouds: "There is a realm of me, and there is a realm of no self." There is my realm, and I look at things, so things are my color. In the state of no-self, we look at things in terms of things, so we don't know what is me and what is things. "Love and scenery, imagery and imagery, hidden and beautiful in the poem towards integration and unity."
At the same time, the poet is good at excavating the spirituality hidden in all things, personifying the earth, rivers, mountains, grasses, trees, flowers and birds, praising their innocence, kindness and simplicity, expressing the praise and praise of nature, and then creating a piece of green leaf-like poetic feelings, which in turn enhances the poet's character. Lu Ji emphasized in "Wen Fu" that "poetry is affectionate and beautiful", which is the poet's love for the rivers and mountains and nature of the motherland, and his lyric poems appear fresh and beautiful and poetic. "Spring of a Big Mountain", "Forever JinggangShan" and "The Main Peak of Jinggangshan" present a series of revolutionary details from the perspective of the long river of revolutionary history, "countless Red Army soldiers nirvana in the fire, and merge with the land / Thick ice and snow can not obliterate their songs and brilliant dreams", it is under the leadership of Mao Zedong and other great people of the generation that the Red Army soldiers threw their heads and spilled their blood to establish the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base Area for the happiness of the world, and their blood and tears were integrated with this red land. Their glorious deeds and the spirit of Jinggangshan created will always be the place where our latecomers learn, and the poetry pins on the poet's reverence for the revolutionary martyrs and their love for the red land of Jinggangshan. Hu Gangyi's group poem "My Poems, Make a Drumstick" won the second prize in the 2009 National Competition held by Poetry Journal and others. The poem consists of four poems and more than 200 lines, and the feelings are sincere and full of feelings: "One tourist after another is a drumstick / The beauty of Shennong Mountain's high and strange mountains / and its resounding reputation is struck by the heavens", praising the beauty of Shennong Mountain, inspiring people's patriotic enthusiasm through the lyricism of magnificent rivers and mountains, and the language of the whole poem is stretched freely, the imagination is rich, and the charm is endless. Every landscape is a state of mind, a firm footprint of the watchman in the wheat field, a nightingale of solo singers bearing the weight and lightness of life.
In short, Hu Gangyi praises nature and expresses his own emotions in his poems, creating a piece of poetry through poetic language and emotion, whether it is family, friendship or love, whether it is the love of old friends or the praise of his hometown, he pours out his own unique and flexible emotional imagery and lyrical style in this poetic emotional creation. The use of its language is also very rich in classical beauty, using synaesthesia, anthropomorphism, metaphor, repetition and other rhetoric to connect this classical beauty and philosophical meaning with beautiful and clean language. Therefore, his poetry is more ethereal in art, fresh and distant, melodious and lingering, effectively making up for the aesthetic shortcomings of the poetry that has been reduced in the 1980s. When Heidegger interpreted Hölderlin's poems, he believed that people should poetically inhabit the earth, yes, use words to illuminate life, and pursue poetic lyricism in life, which is exactly the goal that the poet Hu Gangyi was looking for, and as he himself said in a television interview: "Poetry can make people beautiful and make people noble", and writing poetry "can find inner peace and spiritual sustenance".

Pure poetic presentation
Liu Lihai
Ji'an has been full of talents since ancient times, and celebrities have gathered, Ouyang Xiu, one of the "Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties", Wen Tianxiang, a national hero, and Yang Wanli, a literary hero of the Song Dynasty, were born here, leaving behind one masterpiece after another. The poet Hu Gangyi embarked on the road of poetry creation under the influence of Luling's profound cultural heritage. As early as the 1980s, the poet began to write poetry, and in his college years, he and local poets founded the RucuiHu Poetry Society, the Spruce Literature Society, and founded the Saturday Poetry Journal. They cut through thorns and thorns, and they searched all the way to improve their poetry. Later, most of the poets did not persist for various reasons, but the poet Hu Gangyi persevered all the way, so he had a large number of excellent poetry works published in the "Poetry Journal", "Selected Poems", "Green Wind", "Stars" and other major journals, and published the poetry collection "Life and the Sea" and "Everyone is a Walking Tree". This kind of creative achievement is one of the few among Jiangxi poets.
Reading the poems of the poet Hu Gangyi, a pure poetic space immediately appears in front of you, giving people a fresh feeling of being in nature. Rodin once said, "It is not the lack of beauty in life, but the lack of eyes to find beauty." The poet Hu Gangyi has this keen aesthetic vision, and everything in nature comes alive under his poetic pen. He is always able to condense the temperament of poetry in his daily life and let its aura flow naturally in the lines of poetry. His poetic language is beautiful, flexible and long-lasting; his poetic imagery is novel, peculiar and vivid; his poetic emotions are subtle, real and touching people's hearts. Whether it is the love of nature, the lyricism of love or the poetic presentation of daily life, it has its own unique way of expression. With these alone, the poetry of the poet Hu Gangyi is worth reading.
First, the love of nature
The poet wrote beautifully, Yuan Ming wrote in the "Poetry of Suiyuan", "The meaning shared by everyone, the scenery of common vision, once spoken, it is wonderful." For example, Shen Dacheng's "Dengjing Ci Temple" cloud: "The flowers follow the double sandals, and the lake light takes a window." In just two short verses, the overall style of the Jingci Temple is presented, and the poet's two sandals step on the flower path, and the fragrance is swirling. Push open the window and the lake and mountains will be reflected in the eyelids, which is very wonderful!
In the poems of the poet Hu Gangyi, those things that are common in nature are colorful and interesting, and constitute the imagery of fresh nature in his poetry. "Qingshan pulls out a clear stream / Stone pulls out the sleeping Mars in his heart / Dark clouds pull out the tears that accumulate in his body / The forest takes out tigers, leopards, wolves, rabbits, and chamois / Spring takes out bees, butterflies, flowers..." The poem "Pull out" is short and concise, but natural things: green mountains, streams, forests, flowers, and animals living in nature: tigers, leopards, wolves, rabbits, chamois, bees, butterflies, etc. A series of images have the potential to cover everything, making the whole poem full of life. The poem "Clouds" and "Pull Out" also have the same similarity, "Clouds from the gray bag / Take out thousands of snowflakes, one by one / White butterflies dance the vastness and nothingness of the sky / Land in the fields, orchards, rooftops, roads ... / Layer by layer into a thick brocade quilt / Warm the cold heart, give the heavens and the earth pure / Dream of next year's insects, birds, wind, moonlight?" / Kissing lilacs, azaleas, peonies, chrysanthemums in the mountains? / Waiting for the signal of the spring flower to cross the time and space " The poet, like a magician, can conjure up countless surprises, he let the clouds pull out thousands of snowflakes, and compared the snowflakes to dancing white butterflies. Images such as "fields, orchards, rooftops, and roads" create a poetic space for the whole poem, making the poetry's mood distant. Like the snow of the thick quilt to the heavens and the earth, to the poet a fairy tale dream, insects, birds, the sound of the wind, the moonlight and the cloves in the mountains, azaleas, peonies, chrysanthemums kiss, this is the pulse of spring beating in the poet's heart. The poet's longing for spring was soon fulfilled, the snow melted, and the whole heaven and earth came alive, "Spring, open the wings of bees, butterflies and dreams / Let every flower in the mountains open their eyes from hibernation" ("The Sound of Spring"), the poet Hu Gangyi is very good at using verbs, such as the "pull out" in the poem "Pull Out" mentioned earlier, and the word "open" in this poem, the magic of the word "open" is to write the god that spring is the beginning of the year. Bees, butterflies, flowers are the poet's common imagery, open the poetry collection, read a beautiful poem, it seems that spring is coming, bees, butterflies spread their wings and fly out of the window, flowers open their eyes from hibernation, blooming in the mountains, full of vitality.
The poet does not only write about spring, the four seasons of the year alternate with each other in his pen. Many things in nature have appeared in the poet's pen, such as rivers, mountains, streams, bamboo, sunflowers, bamboo shoots, tree roots, earthworms, eagles, etc., these poetic images that are desirable from nature are full of vitality in the poet's pen. The poet has a heart of grass and wood, at any time, on any occasion can be immersed in nature, and the grass and wood have no heart, but in the poet's pure poetic space becomes flexible, so his poetry always gives people a sense of freshness. If you take a random one, you can see the poet's infinite love for nature. Check out Breathing:
Deep in the earth, it is the rapid breathing of seeds sprouting
In the wilderness, it is the buds that bloom quietly breathe
At the bottom of the river, the fish breathe slowly and slowly when they play with the waves
On the desk, there is the breath of the gushing mountain stream connected by words
On the manuscript paper, a piece of snow leaves a line of footprints to breathe
The heart of the poet is sensitive and pure. Nature allows the poet's spirit to find sustenance and home, and what the poet returns to nature is infinite love. Only by integrating into nature can you hear the budding breath of seeds in the depths of the mountains, can you smell the breath of flower buds blooming in the mountains, can you touch the breath of fish and waves playing at the bottom of the river, can you understand the breath of poetry on the desk like a gushing mountain stream, and can you express a breath of white snow on the manuscript paper.
Second, an alternative lyric of love
It's easy to write scenes, but it's hard to write feelings. The scenery is external, as far as the eye can see, pay attention to the heart, and the scenery can be written very well. But love is intrinsic, secret, delicate, and private. In poetry, the grasp of emotion can be seen in the foundation of a poet's poetry writing, and the poet Hu Gangyi is very calm when lyrical, like a breeze and drizzle, and will not give people the suspicion of being bored. Love is an emotion that chinese and foreign poets must write about in ancient and modern times, as early as the "Book of Poetry" in the "Crab Leaf", there is "Crab leaf, white dew as frost." The so-called Iraqis are on the water side. The lyrics of the verses on love. The poet Zheng Shuoyu's "Mistakes", Yeats's "When You Are Old", "The Wild Swan of Lake Kur", etc. all expound on love from different angles and using different writing techniques. Born in Jinggangshan, a poet who was "a group of pioneers of the republic that entered the sacred aura of the sun" and "fertile land", with a heart as strong as his name, "in front of the strange cold / Stand up straight and don't lie down / This is the image of the water standing up suddenly / In the adversity / Present the hard bones / Hold the ice silver sword / Don't tear a tear in the cold northern wind" ("Water Ah Water"), "The teardrops that I don't flick are the seeds of perseverance / The seeds that can hold up the lid" ("He Said to a Lamb"), This is like a tall and strong image of the poet himself. But there is a hidden tenderness in this fortitude, and the poet's softness has always hidden a "strange and mysterious little animal" - a groundhog. The groundhog has short and fat hands and feet, a cute tail, and a silly but charming appearance. This can be seen from the other side of the poet's sensitive, tender side. And look at his poem "The Groundhog":
When love is like a groundhog
Don't be surprised when you wake up in the spring
Under the ground of youth, one sneaks up on one
Weird and mysterious critters
It was blind, accustomed to darkness and accustomed to night
Suddenly came to the sun, unable to open their eyes
Its small eyes squint and probe the brain
Whose heart are you going to steal? It replied shyly and helplessly
Cute. Please give it a slice
A free world of lush water and grass and emerald green bamboo
This master of punching holes, in the dirt
Sleep, live, do not eat fruit leaves, love nature
The root blocks of plants are reed roots and bamboo roots
A rich juicy water in the body. It looks clumsy
Slow movements, in fact, very sensitive, one has
The wind blew and the grass moved, and in the blink of an eye, they escaped without a trace
This is a poem about love, the poet Hu Gangyi can grasp the emotional rhythm quite well when writing love, and in the technique of going against tradition, he is good at figurative emotions, and can always find a figurative possession for the feelings to be written. In this poem, he compares love to a "strange and mysterious little animal" that "sneaks up" "under the ground of youth." "It is shy, helpless / cute", this is the look of the groundhog, but also a blind portrayal of young people in love. Another outstanding aspect of this poem is that while writing about love, he dissolves this emotion in the natural scene, "Please give it a piece / The free world of abundant water and grass, verdant green bamboo / This master who is good at digging holes, sleeping in the soil, living, not eating fruit leaves, loving nature / Root blocks of plants, drawing reed roots, bamboo roots for / Abundant juice in the body." ”
"Small Plants To Break Out of the Soil" is ostensibly writing about the trend of spring shoots breaking the soil, but with the help of the image of spring shoots, it vividly outlines the image of the first love girl", "standing tall" and "invincible". In the poem "Harmony", the poet describes the subtle psychological changes of men and women in love quite eloquently, "You cross mountains, rivers, clouds, fierce winds / and countless days when the sun and moon are illuminated / Look at me on the thorns / I am flattered / Which god in the underworld is cleverly arranged?" / Relatively speechless the longest / You and I are stirring and intertwining / Can't help but want to kiss you and get together -/ My sudden love scares you away." "I have given my heart to you, little witch" is written in the hero's twists and turns in the pursuit of the girl, "I have given my heart to you, little witch!" / As the horizon plucks the morning sun into the night and the morning, and "she" rejects "me" thousands of miles away, "I" and "strawberry heart" are broken, and "my" pain is incomprehensible, "but the remaining hard core, the next spring / Spit out the language of green leaves in the wind: / I love you, little witch!" This poem expresses the poet's indomitable attitude towards love, and although he has been repeatedly rejected, he still loves and pursues. The poet also expressed this indomitable spirit in "A Blue Dragonfly Died" through the tragic death of the blue dragonfly. "When love is far away, / Acacia becomes an unforgettable and eternal pain / pain, radiant!" 」 ("The Moon, the Wound of the Night"), in this poem the poet's unusually fresh, soothing lyricism is written about the pain in love. When the poet Hu Gangyi wrote about love, he did not fall into the cliché, did not directly vent his emotions, but controlled the lyrical rhythm through metaphors, anthropomorphism, symbolism and other writing techniques, and diluted the strong lyricism on some specific natural things, revealing a faint and elegant emotion.
Third, the improvement of the poetry of daily life
Heidegger said: Man should inhabit poetically. In an age of materialistic desires and entertainment to death, many people lose themselves. It is rare to be able to hold on to the pure land that belongs to one's own side and sing alone. The poet Hu Gangyi has always adhered to his own direction in poetry creation, discovering poetry in his busy life. Every writer and poet has a regional background when creating, such as The ancient city of Han culture in Lu Xun's Writing Shaoxing, and the border city full of local customs under Shen Congwen's pen. Many of the poets Hu Gangyi's poems involve daily writing, and most of those poems are written in Ji'an. From his poems, you can see the yanjiang road next to the Ganjiang River in Ji'an, and you can hear the historical voice of the Luling literati.
The poet has always cared for the things around him with a poetic heart, but in the torrent of life, the poet also has his worries. As the poem "A Bird Song" writes:
A bird song woke me up in the early morning
A turn of his head caught the elf
What a coincidence! How lucky!
In a city full of tall buildings and roaring cars
There was also a bird song like dewdrops fresh
But the balcony where she rested was not deep in the mountains
It was the fence that was skinny and bony arms
No flowers, no green leaves, no mountain streams
I wish my hand to it was a green branch
Let the frightened birds perch for a moment
Some of the books published by Hu Gangyi
The poet with a keen poetic eye is lucky, and as soon as he turns his head, he catches "a bird song like dewdrops" in the "city of tall buildings and roaring cars", and the poet compares the "fence" where the bird stays to "skinny arms", suggesting that this is an era of lack of poetry, "I wish my hand reached for it was a green branch / Let the frightened bird dwell for a moment" The poet also exudes his worries here. But at the same time of worry, the poet will actively create poetry, even in the ordinary details of life such as waiting for the car, the poet can also explore its poetry, "Autumn Poem" is a poem that uses colloquial language to describe the dialogue process with the conductor while waiting for the car in colloquial language, if the poet only stays here, then the poem has no meaning. But it's just a foreshadowing, "'I don't take this ride!'" My gaze / In the distant mountains of unknown clouds / There is an anxious heart in my sky: / I will wait for a car to go to autumn! / Sail to the golden docks of the fruit-burning autumn! The poet does not stay in the pale description, but the pen turns sharply, turning the object of writing to the natural scene, so that the poetry of the whole poem is enhanced, and then looking back at the previous narrative language, you will find that each sentence is indispensable. The language of the poem "The Secret Decision of Boss Wang to Get Rich" is also closer to spoken language, the poet uses dramatic writing techniques to write the ups and downs of Boss Wang's fortune process, "Boss Wang is dizzy in counting the bills", but "the peasants have a car of ginger / sent to the foreign trade company, a steady stream of rivers / Every pound drops to a dime, the company still refuses", here a dramatic conflict is formed, and the bitter years of impermanence of life are vividly expressed. "Walking by the Ganjiang River" is written even more poetically, the poet walked along the river road in the evening, looking at the "traffic on the Ganjiang Bridge into another kind of river", and could not help but remember the passing years, listen to the sound of history, and remember the ancestors of Luling. Poets are always able to distill infinite poetry in their daily lives and inhabit poetically in their own world.
IV. Conclusion
Language is the laurel of poetry, and the reason why poetry is poetry is mainly that the language of poetry is different from the language of other genres. The poet Hu Gangyi pursues the linguistic beauty of poetry, uses the language of beauty to conceive the artistic conception of beauty, sublimates the idea of beauty, and grasps the rhythm of beauty. His poetry is always a multi-theme fusion, praising nature at the same time, but also singing a beautiful emotion; while writing love, but also dissolving emotions in the natural mood; while narrating daily life, but also deepening the poetic pursuit. Therefore, reading his poems is like listening to a symphony, some implicit emotions are naturally revealed, and vivid images jump out of front of people, making people immersed in them and endlessly reminiscent.
