木欣欣以向荣,泉涓涓而始流
《有所思》
有所思,乃在大海南。
何用問遺君?雙珠玳瑁簪,用玉紹繚之。
聞君有他心,拉雜摧燒之。
摧燒之,當風揚其灰。
從今以往,勿復相思,相思與君絕!
雞鳴狗吠,兄嫂當知之。
妃呼豨!秋風肅肅晨風揚,東方須臾高知之。
I like this poem.
Recently discovered the title/re-remembered it after I read a story and the author mentioned it in the 后记, and I suddenly realised I knew it.
The world is not a beautiful place, but it's the only one we will ever know of so... I suppose we just have to make the best of what we have. And perhaps what we can do.
Anyway! I rewatched 金枝玉孽 and I (still) think it's hilarious how 张可颐 and 陈豪 can play the 笛子 late at night and be heard from the other side of the palace and not wake anyone up. And by extension how they can scream for help/kill someone and yet not get noticed. Well.
