国史冷吟：“蚕在茧中找到自己”
Xia Zhongyi
"The silkworm found itself in the cocoon", the original text comes from "Hong Kong Sketch" (1982) written by Wang Xindi (1912-2004). This poem laments a historical fact that he learned during his visit to Hong Kong in 1981: A Hong Kong lady found Xin Di's 1948 edition of "The Collection of Palms" (manuscript) in the 1960s and fell in love with it. She actually spent days and nights copying the entire text, but she had no idea that the poet had not passed away at that time. This should not help but make Xin Di rejoice that the old work "flowers inside the wall and smells outside the wall", but also suddenly feels that "the world has been around for thousands of years": it turns out that his long-dormant poetic nature has come back at home and abroad, and is regarded as a living "cultural relic".
