Wandering in Agarwood
Literature沉香里的流浪
Gao Xubo
Zhao Yu once said: "Why do poets write prose? Because they feel that roughness can sometimes be a kind of beauty. Poetry is too smooth, like a woman's body, and cannot stay on it for too long." For me, I used to write poems lukewarmly. Gradually, I felt that they belonged to those younger than me. They are bold and crazy, obsessed but not regretful, frank and emotional, and prose essays mostly write about trivial things in life, a moment of feeling, a moment of emotion, which is a written expression of one kind of true self, and another kind of real me. Unknowingly, I tried to write scattered words to express my inner feelings and emotions that poetry could not fully encompass. I feel that compared to writing poetry, prose may have more cultural and social responsibility and conformity (of course, this does not mean that poetry does not have the meaning of responsibility). In other words, it is a kind of literary, cultural and textual responsibility.
