Appreciation of The Last Poem:
Dying poems are written at the end of life. Most of them talk about their unfinished business in this life, or explain the aftermath to their families. But Tang Yin, the prodigal genius, is not like this. The meaning of "there is a farewell party after death" is very clear. All banquets in the world always have a farewell party, and then it is more direct to say "why not die in hell", and it is just as well to go back to hell then.
The next couplet, "The deceased is like a husband, just wandering in a foreign land", is meaningful. Most people know that Tang Bohu is bohemian, drinking and enjoying flowers, and making poems and paintings, so he is very handsome, but few people can understand his helplessness and pain in wandering in the Jianghu.
Tang Yin, a young boy, is high-spirited and has the ambition to help the world. However, after the lawsuit, he lost hope and confidence in reality. From then on, he pretended to be epileptic and indulged in painting and calligraphy to escape from reality. So he feels that the world is almost like hell, and it is painful enough on earth. Can hell be more painful than the world? Think of it as wandering in a foreign land. Anyway, I've been wandering all my life. What's the point?
This poem expresses the boundary between life and death in concise language and the author's free and easy view of life and death, which is a masterpiece.
