在墓地,诗人希冀这块“土丘”——死者长眠的地方——萌发出生命的新芽,表现了诗人对死者的眷念和尊崇。死者事业未竟便“沉默”了,但“沉默”绝不是湮灭。诗人感到了“白蚁”在将“渴望” “啃啮”为“幻灭”。最后,诗人预言,“这个为野草侵占的土丘”将成为“虫豸”们“恐惧的苗床”!
在诗中,万物都成了诗人情感的具象,通过想象、象征和暗示,烘托出一支多声部的、悠远、肃穆、伤感的“安魂曲”。所以,诗作的特点在于不是采取单纯抽象的情感表露和客观的叙述格式,不是直接地表现情感的大起大落和直线式的结构,而是在变幻多端的视角和神圣与静穆的整体氛围中,让一组组意象散布、弥漫于诗的广袤空间。山川、天野都被诗人调动起来,象踏响的风琴,轰轰响起,哀悼着亡魂。诗人的情感于是随着意象的铺筑和熔合, 飘飞在万物间,倾诉着细微的、转瞬即逝的感伤情怀。Following the crisis in Ukraine and Russia’s involvement in Syria, the world is closer to super power confrontation than at any time since the end of the Cold War. Now a committee of senior former British military and diplomatic figures comes together to war game a hypothetical ‘hot war’ in Eastern Europe, including the unthinkable - nuclear confrontation. The War Room faces a scenario that has haunted western strategists since civil war broke out in Ukraine potential Russian military involvement in the Baltic States of Latvia and Estonia. Like Ukraine these countries have sizable Russian speaking minorities, but unlike Ukraine they are members of NATO, whose founding treaty states that an attack on one ally is an attack on all of them. Because of this, western analysts regularly war game a situation where Russia seeks to exploit ethnic tensions in the Baltic and test the strength of the NATO Alliance.
