Features: An idealist who firmly believes that life must have love, freedom, and beauty. A tragic failure hero. We dare not dream of his dreams, and we cannot bear his cruel failures. His poems are all time-honored classics, and his heart is always the sky of April in the human world. Xu Zhimo, our new poet of the new era, an idealist who firmly believes that life must have love, freedom, and beauty, a tragic failure hero. His pursuit makes us ashamed, because our faith is too small, we never dared to dream of his dreams. His failure makes us respect and sympathize with him, because in the vast world, only he had this faith, risking great dangers, enduring countless troubles, sacrificing all ordinary comforts, to pursue and test the sacred realm of a dream. Without Xu Zhimo, the poetic world would be lonely. Xu Zhimo, his talk is poetry, his actions are poetry, his entire life is poetry. In the 20th century, when Chinese new literature flourished and talented individuals emerged, in fiction, naturally, Mr. Lu Xun was regarded as the guiding light; in prose, Zhou Zuoren could be considered a master of his generation; in new poetry, Xu Zhimo had to be mentioned. Even if Xu Zhimo could not hold the forefront of the new poetry scene, he was at least one of the few outstanding representatives. It is quite appropriate to say that Xu Zhimo represents a spirit, a spirit of personal independence and freedom from restraint, just as he declared himself: "I believe I have something different from others. I have not surrendered to this world, nor have I been constrained by it." This self-awareness, depth, and seriousness of being different, not surrendering, not being constrained, are not only reflected in his understanding of society and life, his pursuit of love and marriage, but also in his poetic and prose creations. Xu Zhimo's successful creations, such as "Goodbye,," "Accident," "Shanyangna La," and "Sea Rhythm," are undoubtedly new poetry masterpieces defined by form, rhythm, and realm, and are widely celebrated, still beloved to this day. Xu Zhimo's new poetry showcases his unique style and charm in self-expression.
