Yu Xiuhua's poem is not the only one that is famous for its title. She began to write poems in 2009. Many themes are about her love, affection, feelings about life, her disability and the closed village she can't get rid of. Barnyard grass, wheat, mine, threshing floor, Hengdian, these common scenes in life, have become images in her poems.
However, Yu Xiuhua is not particularly sensitive to his popularity. For her living in the countryside, poetry is a kind of personal writing. I love poetry and never expect it to bring me anything. ?
Writing poetry because? Can't play mahjong?
? All the confession about poetry is superfluous, which is my deepest need. ? In poetry magazine 20 14? Grand view garden in September? In the special edition, Yu Xiuhua once expressed his views on poetry in this way. Since the confession of poetry is superfluous, why is it the deepest need? Yu Xiuhua said that poetry is to express oneself, and there are poems in poetry. Talking too much is definitely unnecessary.
Congenital cerebral palsy made Yu Xiuhua walk unsteadily, some wobbly and inarticulate, and he could hardly do heavy work. Fortunately, he can take care of himself. Yu Xiuhua failed to go to college because of congenital diseases. In his sophomore year, he dropped out of school and returned to his hometown of Hengdian Village, Shipai Town, Zhongxiang City, Jingmen City, Hubei Province.
1995, Yu Xiuhua 19 years old? Non-free love and marriage? Apart from bringing her a son who is now 18 years old and studying in Wuhan, this marriage is more unfortunate and depressed. Although I haven't divorced yet, I haven't been in touch for many years.
Speaking of the origin of poetry, Yu Xiuhua said that he wrote poetry because he couldn't play mahjong, which was so boring. She has not received systematic training in poetry creation. You can write anything you want. . 1998, Yu Xiuhua wrote her first poem Impression. At least more than 2000 poems have been written so far.
Poetry is a crutch.
The choice of writing poetry was initially related to the relatively small number of words in this literary genre. Because of the congenital reasons of the body, Yu Xiuhua needs great strength to keep his balance when writing, so he can only write with his left hand protecting his right wrist. Gradually, writing poetry became hers? Must do it? One thing, she said that she loved poetry and never expected it to bring her anything. ? Poetry is essentially an internal personal writing. The so-called talent is just a person's view and understanding of the world. ?
Yu Xiuhua said,? Only when I am writing a poem can I be complete, quiet and happy. In fact, I have never been a quiet person. I am not reconciled to this fate, nor can I bear it. But all my struggles have failed, and I will curse the street and scold my mother. Of course, I am a peasant woman myself, and there is no reason to completely break away from its inferiority. But I never thought that poetry would become a weapon. Even if it is, I won't use it, because I love it too much, because I can't bear it. ?
She describes poetry. It comes as a naked child when the heart calls, but it acts as a crutch when a person stumbles in a rickety world. ?
After her works received great attention, did the media call her that? Cerebral palsy poet? . When the reporter asked her if she was sad to be called like this, Yu Xiuhua said frankly: I don't feel sad, because it is a fact.
? Excerpt from Yu Xiuhua's poem: Sleeping with you halfway through China.
In fact, it is similar to sleeping with you and being slept by you, but it is
The force of collision between two objects is nothing more than the flower driven by this force.
It is just an imaginary flower. Spring makes us mistakenly think that life has been reopened.
In most parts of China, everything is happening: volcanoes erupt and rivers dry up.
Some neglected political prisoners and refugees
Elk and red-crowned crane at gunpoint all the way.
I slept with you through bullets.
I pushed countless nights to sleep with you at dawn.
I am countless, I met one, I sleep with you.
Of course, I will also be led astray by some butterflies.
Think of some praise as spring
Take a village similar to Hengdian as my hometown.
they
Are all necessary reasons for me to sleep with you.
Goodbye, 20 14
Like a hug in a foreign land: goodbye, my 20 14.
Like the last farewell in a foreign land: goodbye, my 20 14.
I am slow and sentimental, and I am always left behind.
When they waved, I thought there was still time to waste.
I thought there was still a lot of time to waste.
20 14 is like a simple Metasequoia, full of magpies and sunny.
Say goodbye to a tree and many people, and we will never meet again.
May God keep you safe.
And will I go back to my hometown?
A person who has no hometown is pregnant with the next spring.
Next spring, not far away.
Next spring, there will be no amiable sisters to meet again.
But I thank those who have hurt me deeply.
I also thank myself: for the constant innocence I meet every time.
I love you
Baba lives, draws water, cooks and takes medicine on time every day.
Put yourself in when the sun is clear, like putting a piece of dried tangerine peel.
Drink tea in turn: chrysanthemum, jasmine, rose and lemon.
These beautiful things seem to take me on the road of spring.
So I kept the snow in my heart again and again.
They are too white, too close to spring.
Read your poems in a clean yard. This kind of human thing
Trance is like a sparrow flying suddenly.
And time is bright. I'm not fit for grief.
If I send you a book, I won't send you poetry.
I will give you a book about plants and crops.
Tell you the difference between rice and barnyard grass
Tell you the barnyard grass in a horrible spring.
shake
The clouds cast a huge shadow. Above the clouds, the sky is luxurious blue.
These heavy things on my head make me lose my direction.
go straight
Everything I met was colorless, withered and made a sound.
I was so nervous: an elk flashed by.
And my spring is still far away from me.
I know why I tremble and why I cry in the dusk.
I have this experience.
I have a panic of being destroyed, torn and abandoned.
This nothingness also hit my chest like a blunt instrument.
It can resist the coldness of reality.
But I can't unload my cold.
If I say I love you, I will be in a trance all my life.
It can keep my eyes from seeing snow and frost.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter, people suffer.
Discrimination in this world
Lose a keen sense of pain
However, everyone knows I can't do it.
Love is just a cold flame that illuminates a person's deep scars.

Creative Features: Love Desire
There are many love poems in Yu Xiuhua's poems. As a woman who has lived at the bottom of society for a long time and is physically disabled, she has a deep understanding of the lack of love. Her love poems are not satisfied with the poetic presentation of love desire, but try to show the rich, complex and distinctive female subject image.
The poetess in her poems is a woman wandering in the mirror with a deep sense of inferiority? Fool? 、? Sick people? ("Meeting the Mirror") is also extremely lofty and arrogant, and loves the rust spots on yourself more than love? What about you? Narcissist (the love I want); Did you go in? What about you? When you are thirsty, are you willing to sacrifice with the blood of your youth? What about you? Devotees ("face to face") and decide? Everything in the world is lost? Pick it up? Bone cleaning? Runaways ("firewood in the field"); Do lonely people let the cold flame of love illuminate deep scars and then go out ("thriller") or go back to the past? Love the people you loved and hurt the people you loved? Spoony (middle age).
Her poems are full of complex meanings, such as the agitation and call of love, the disillusionment and realization of love, etc. Love is not so much the theme of her poems as the core proposition that causes the poet to ask metaphysical questions such as existence, truth and death.
Gender poetics
In a sense, Yu Xiuhua's poetry creation reflects? Gender poetics? The characteristics of. Yu Xiuhua's poems also attach importance to the writing of body, but the body in her poems is no longer limited to Elena? Sisu's body is used to create his own speech field, which is closer to Melo? What Ponty said: it constitutes a central example and symbol of something with a critical, silent and mysterious background, which can be used as everything that can be expressed in words and art; The non-reflective source of everything that can be consciously grasped in reflective thinking or replication? For poets, Ji's body, the inner physical experience of pain, deformity and trembling, is not only the source of poets' creation, but also the poetic starting point of observing and inquiring about themselves and everything, and the basic point of questioning and reflecting on reality.
? Actually, it's similar to sleeping with you and being slept with by you. It's nothing more than the power of two objects colliding, nothing more than flowers pushed away by this power ... Of course, I will also be led astray by some butterflies/take some praise as spring/take a village like Hengdian as my hometown/and they are all indispensable reasons for me to sleep with you. ? ("sleeping with you across China")? Sleeping with you? Is the core word of this poem. The vulgar nature of this word can easily make readers doubt the seriousness of poetry creation before reading it. When people read the whole poem with contempt and contempt, they will suddenly find that their aesthetic expectations have been reopened because of some magical poetic power, and they have completed a special update and transcendence.

A higher starting point
Yu Xiuhua's poetry creation has a high starting point. Her poems have both the interest of classical poetry and the lyricism of modern poetry. The real intention of the creative subject is conveyed through interesting and flexible language. Her poems do not have a fierce gender confrontation posture, nor do they avoid the pain of women's survival. Instead, it objectively expresses the pain of the bottom women's survival with vivid physical experience and life experience, and shows the value and dignity of people with strong subjective spirit.
Her poems are frank, as Liu Nian, editor-in-chief of Poetry magazine that discovered Yu Xiuhua, said: In her heart, there are no high walls, no bronze locks and dogs, not even a fence. You can walk in easily. Her poems, put in the poems of China poetess, are as striking as putting a murderer in a group of ladies' homes. Others are neatly dressed, painted with powder and sprayed with perfume. There is no sweat in black and white, but she is smoky and confused, and there is obvious blood between her words. ? Her poems are aloof, with no low eyebrows and no compromise. Xiaowu kept wagging his tail when he grabbed my hair and hit me against the wall. There is nothing he can do for a man who is not afraid of pain? . Yu Xiuhua's slightly sad poems lead readers back to their daily lives and personal memories, vividly showing the complicated life situation.
As a young poet, Yu Xiuhua's poetry creation also has some obvious shortcomings. Her poems still lack the friction between personal vivid life experience and complicated historical imagination, and the language expression in some places is a bit stiff and kitsch. Even the poet's keen sensibility and good language talent can't cover up some rough and flustered words in poetry, which all affect the height of poetry. We expect a passionate, sensitive and calm Yu Xiuhua, which will bring more poems that are not only touching, but also more solid, pure and powerful.
