Caotang Reading Poetry 丨 Recitation: Xue Songshuang's "White Night" and "Constellations"

White Nights

I was dancing in the square, uneasy

Follow me; I'm late at night

Flip through a book with no beginning and no end

Suddenly I felt inexplicable panic. One

An ominous shadow stared at me. It stands in the wilderness

Walking with the lights on, footsteps in the rain

The gaze is like a beam of light pressing. So many years

I felt guilty that it made me look down on myself

See the holes and cracks in the body. I

The heart of the locust flower is still soft

I've accumulated so much darkness

I haven't really cried yet

It has not yet been born in this world

It was like a thorn piercing into my slowly opening

heart. Soft, like a jacket

Poetry is life, welcome to the "Caotang Reading Poetry" jointly launched by Cover News, Chengdu Radio and Television Station Listening Hall FM and Caotang Poetry Magazine, I am a reading poet Juanzi. The poem "White Night" that I just heard came from the poet Xue Songshuang's group poem "I Haven't Really Cried Yet". Today we will share Xue Songshuang's poems together.

The post-70s poet Xue Songshuang, a native of Nanyang, Henan, has been writing poetry for many years. He tended to write original poetry, trying his best to return to the original in this avant-garde, broken world, to the original, to the original, to the essence, to the original heart. Let's listen to this "Constellation" in the group poem:

constellation

The previous winter night. I talked to my history teacher about us

This nation. Confucius temples, cracks, scriptures... Cypress

Lying alone at the head of the bed late at night, listening to a drop of eaves

Drop. We built a solid roof with grief

to carry those ice and snow. Later I got drunk

The footsteps are staggering, and the earth is tilting. Seems

A baby is reborn. The overhead constellations are connected

Filled with darkness. And us

It was never clear what my mother looked like

Xue Songshuang's poetry is pure and restrained, showing the spirituality and wisdom of realization. As the poet himself said, he smiled in the face of the mediocre life and the black oppressive crowd, turned around, and walked into the garden of poetry and the starry sky. Between them, there is no distance, in the poem, the turbidity and the clarity slowly mixed together...

Poetry is life, "grass hall reading poetry", there is temperature, there is texture. Reading the poem today is here, thanks for the attention, we will see you next time.
