Secondly, an important technique of surrealism "interruption" or "incoherence" is also well reflected in this sentence. The auditory arrangement of this sentence is harmonious, but the visual arrangement is the opposite. More like a set of shots ... (omitted)
When this collection of poems made Nie Luda rise to the poetic world and become the spokesman of the avant-garde movement in Chile, the critics did not care about the writing skills of this collection of poems, but traced it back to the source. But Nie Luda kept his mouth shut about it. Until 1954, thirty years after the publication of his poetry anthology, he revealed his secret in a speech at the University of Chile:
This collection of poems mainly has two falls in love, one I experienced as a countryman in adolescence, and the other was waiting for me in the maze of San Diego later. In "Twenty Love Poems and a Desperate Song" ... they are page after page, so one moment is the flash of the forest, and the other moment is the sweet and dark background.

It is worth mentioning the sixteenth song. In 1930s, when Nie Luda gained international fame with his Residence on Earth, Chilean literary circles made a big fuss about his love poem, saying that it resembled a poem by Tagore. In this regard, Nie Luda added in the 1938 edition: "The sixteenth poem is mainly a freelance translator of Tagore's Gardener Collection. This is well known. Those who tried to use this example to attack during my absence have been forgotten in the process of facing this book of adolescent poems with lasting vitality, and they deserve it. "
Eliot once said that immature poets imitate and mature poets copy. Nie Luda is a talented poet, so it doesn't matter whether he is mature or not. There is no doubt that he successfully conquered the original poem: his prey appears more energetic and powerful. This is completely Nie Luda's style. By the way, if you reread Tagore's Gardeners Collection, you will find that Nie Luda's whole poetry collection is deeply influenced by this poetry collection. For example, if there is no title, long sentences are preferred and periods are often used. Some images such as necklace, bell and cloak are also commonly used by Tagore. Some sentences in The Gardener's Collection, such as "The moon tries to kiss your skirt through the leaves at night", "In the morning, I cast my net into the sea" and "Your words, my heart takes them as its own words", have also been translated into twenty love poems and a desperate song by Nie Luda.

Nie Luda wrote many touching love poems. Twenty Love Poems and a Despair Song (1924) is the earliest, most famous and best-selling collection of poems in Nie Luda. Together with his later 100 love sonnets, they are well-known in South America and have far-reaching influence. Poetry describes the love and natural scenery between young men and women, with a strong romantic color, and is a masterpiece reflecting its early style. Twenty love poems and a desperate song, as the name implies, describe the torture of love. This is the end of his two love affairs: expressing his attachment to the Temuco girl (Marisol) and his admiration for the San Diego girl (Mary Sanboura). It is active between the past and the present, between darkness and light, between loss and possession, and between the poet and the woman he loves, there is only alienation and hard thinking. The melancholy of love has already penetrated the soul. In order to heal his love wounds, the poet would rather escape from all the status quo that binds him. In Twenty Love Poems and a Desperate Song, he felt that his heart was broken, rotted and turned into a pit, which was bitter and open to the garbage in the world, so the poet told his story with tears in his eyes. He felt the misfortune of love, but he wanted to tell the world through his own experience: please cherish this beautiful moment of love arrival in the long journey of life! Although the poet is desperate, he is still attached to nature and life. Come on! The poet calls, let go of the sigh in his heart, and don't waste time because of loneliness. Although you can relax, you can enjoy all the flavors brought by life and grasp the present. Although the poet mourns the hope of life, he still looks at nature and enjoys the happiness he has never enjoyed before. Poets should enjoy themselves and drink the nectar and bile mixed together in the cup of life. The sixth song depicts the happy moment when "I" and "you" get together. Although you are close at hand, I can already feel your heart in the sky. "Your eyes wander", but my heart is only on "you"; Gray berets, whispering birds, quiet hearts, that's where I deeply desire to fly. "I" finally remembered and chewed only "lights, cigarettes, a pool of still water"! The love between an affectionate "me" and an elusive "you" can only be tasted by "me" in the end. In the seventh song, a melancholy, sad and emotionally tortured "I" jumped out of the paper. My mind is condensed into a "net", hoping to capture the memories about you. But "you" is so unpredictable, just like the "ocean", the "net" of "me" can't capture your heart anyway. Therefore, "I" can only be "lonely and burning", even if "drowning" can only be willing. You can only be my distant woman. Even if you are kind to me, it will only be a terrible coast. If I land, I will only fall into the ocean of despair. What I can do is to "cast a sad net" and catch "you" and "the eyes of the ocean". This song is full of symbols, metaphors and unpredictable language to vent depression and despair. At the same time, it has delicate rhythm, distinct rhythm and rich musical beauty. In the form of poetry, Nie Luda is compatible. He broke through the traditional format of realism, absorbed the advantages of folk literature, romanticism and realism, and formed his own unrestrained style.
Nie Luda attached great importance to the reference of traditional poetry forms, and paid more attention to the innovation of poetry. Twenty Love Poems and A Song of Despair not only inherited the tradition of Spanish national poetry, but also accepted the influence of French modernist poetry such as Baudelaire. It not only absorbs the characteristics of Chilean national poetry, but also finds its favorite form from Whitman's creation. His poems express his ideals and hopes with strong feelings, rich imagination and vocabulary, and are deeply loved by young readers.
