In the past six months, he has written many articles about modern poetry. To be honest, modern poetry reads a lot and feels greasy. No matter who wrote it, how "famous" it is, but the feeling of reading it is the same. In general, it is four words "do not know what to do". Some of them seem simple and clear, but they don't know where the good is. Some of the words are known, but when they are put together, they don't know what they mean.
Besides, if you write more articles criticizing modern poetry, some people will not be happy. Say I'm "evil in my heart", say I'm "ill-intentioned", say I 'can't eat grapes, say grapes are sour" Oh and so on. Think about it, modern poetry is their rice bowl, breaking people's rice bowls, and indeed some "unkind". Therefore, I will not write modern poetry today, change the taste, and come to be interesting.
Zhang hit the oil
Yes, poems can also be very interesting to write, and this kind of poetry also has a special name, called "oil poetry". Zhang Dayou of the Tang Dynasty was passed down through the ages by a poem called "Wing Xue", creating a new world of poetry. "The river is general, and the inoue is black." The yellow dog is white, and the white dog is swollen. This poem can be said to be a typical representative of "rough words", the sentence is somewhat tacky, but it is extremely graphic.
Zhang Dayou "Wing Xue"
Oil poems are actually not easy to write, and it takes no less effort than other poems. Therefore, there are not many good oil poems. However, fortunately, Zhang Zongchang appeared. Zhang Zongchang originally did not want to write oil poetry at all, and always wanted to write good poetry. But he was crooked and even created a lot of oil poems. Decades later, people still know his name, and people can't help but laugh at the mention of him, all because of his poetry.
Zhang Zongchang
Zhang Dayou wrote "Yongxue", and Zhang Zongchang also wrote "Yongxue", but compared to it, Zhang Zongchang is indeed a lot worse. However, many of Zhang Zongchang's poems have still been handed down, why? That is because his poems, although not good, have a very important quality, that is, "true". Zhang Zongchang's cultural level is not high, but he never pretends to write what kind of poetry he has at a high level.
Zhang Zongchang's poems
It is this that is the most attractive place for readers. If Zhang Zongchang wrote some crepe verses, no one would remember him. Let's think about it, if Zhang Zongchang is a "lonely", "human", "sad" ah, ah, who can still be interested? Therefore, Zhang Zongchang is self-aware in writing poetry. This language of his, in keeping with his level, was not pretentious to make a disease-free groan.
Of course, strictly speaking, Zhang Zongchang's poems are not even oil poems. Oil poetry should also be meaningful, and it should also be thought-provoking when people laugh. But Zhang Zongchang's poems fail to do this. His poems only make people laugh, but there is no room for further thinking, but this does not prevent his poems from surviving.
Therefore, from Zhang Zongchang's poems, we can at least learn one thing, that is, to write poems to be "true". Write whatever you want, and write whatever poems you want. However, many poets now forget this minimum point, and they have to pretend to be how high a level they are, but instead reveal their stuffing.
Today's poets write poems that are obscure and difficult to understand, and all kinds of words and allusions are stuffed into the poems. On the surface, it seems to be quite cultured, but in fact, it is three words - "false big empty". Reading more such poems, and then reading Zhang Zongchang's poems, has become a kind of "enjoyment". It is estimated that even Zhang Zongchang himself did not think of this.
Zhang Zongchang not only wrote his own poems, but he was also written into songs. In the "Song of Shandong" published in 1930, there are many songs that scold Zhang Zongchang, one of which is "there are also onions, there are also garlic, Zhang Zongfu boiled in the pot; there are also onions, there are also ginger, Zhang Zongchang boiled in the pot", indicating that Zhang Zongchang is not a good official. He was not a good poet, and he was not "famous". Therefore, Zhang Zongchang's poems also tell us that even if we write more poems, we still can't do it after all, and we don't have to force it.
