He loved to write poetry and left many poems at various stages of his life, but in the last 10 years, he never wrote poetry again.
**The last poem I wrote was in June 1966, and it was published in September 1996, 30 years have passed!
Let's take a look at the poem first
"Seven Laws: Thoughtful".
It was when God had something to do, and he came to the south to step on the branches.
The green pine is angry to the sky, and the fallen leaves are galloping with the blue water.
A gust of wind and thunder shocked the world, and the streets were full of red and green flags.
Listening to the rain quietly, the people of the old country have thoughts.
This poem was written in the Dishui Cave in Shaoshan, Hunan, about his trip to the Dishui Cave, which has always been full of mystery, and many things have not yet been declassified.
On June 18, 1966, ** secretly returned to his hometown of Shaoshan, but, unlike the last time he returned to his hometown, ** did not make the itinerary public this time, nor did he see anyone in his hometown, but lived in the dripping hole alone, and lived in it for 11 days, and even many leaders of ** did not know that he went**, as if he suddenly disappeared from the world.
It was during this period that ** wrote this poem, which was also the last poem in his life.
The first sentence "It was when the gods had something to do, and they came to the south to step on the branches", which refers to the fact that something major was happening in Beijing at that time, which was because of a historical drama "The Dismissal of Hai Jui", which caused a big discussion, and then triggered the 10-year-long revolution.
It was when this revolution was just emerging, ** came to his hometown in Hunan, saying that it was "stepping on Fangzhi", but in fact, it was brewing this revolution.
The second sentence "The green pine is angry with the sky, and the defeated leaves are galloping with the blue water", using "green pine" as a metaphor for the revolutionary generals, and "losing the leaves" as a metaphor for the capitalist roaders, vividly highlighting the different fates of the two, which no one can stop.
The third sentence "A gust of wind and thunder shocks the world, and the streets are full of red and green flags", which is also written about this revolution, which will surely sweep the whole country like a thunderstorm and shock the world, and the streets and alleys will be full of revolutionary generals, unstoppable!
The fourth sentence "Listening to the rain quietly, the people of the old country have thoughts", it is said that when I wrote this poem, it had just rained in the dripping hole, and I listened to the sound of the rain and thought of the fate and future of the people of the whole country.
This poem, full of typical Maoist style, is contrasting, impassioned, and full of victorious and fearless revolutionary spiritThis poem melts feelings, scenes, events, and reason in one furnace, the battle is Seiko, the language is skillful, and the style is gratifying when angry, desolate in the heroic, and light in the deep. ”
Historians basically believe that the 11 days in Dishui Cave finally made him make up his mind to launch a great revolution and completely reverse"The world is in turmoil, and the world is in turmoil".。This poem was written during this period, so it can also be clearly seen that the idea of *** is full of expectations for this revolution.
After leaving the dripping hole, he also wrote a letter to **, mentioning these thoughts of his own, which read:"If there is a rightist coup d'état in China, I conclude that they will also be unrestful, and will probably be short-lived, because all revolutionaries representing the interests of more than 90 percent of the people will not tolerate it. At that time, the right may use my words to gain momentum, and the left will definitely use some of my other words to organize and bring down the right. This Cultural Revolution was a serious exercise ......This is a national exercise, and the left, the right, and the vacillating centrists will all learn their own lessons. Conclusion: The future is bright, the road is tortuous, or these two old sayings. ”
As for this poem, ** has not been published publicly during his lifetime, except by his side.
