杨键是一个有开拓中国诗歌新的可能性的诗人。诗歌激动人的最重要的原因好像不在于它是否代表自己国家的“故土”、“自然”、“人民”或“灵魂”。重要的是他描述的东西能否跨国、跨社会、跨文化、跨时代引起读者深刻的感慨。简单地说,他描写的东西是否含有普遍性。在我看来杨键的视野并不宽,反而可以说有些狭窄又偏激。不怕受误解而说,我觉得这种看法有点片面并形成他创作的局限性。其实,反过来说,这种局限性就是通到普遍性的关键。 Yang Key is a poet who opens up new possibilities for Chinese poetry. The most important reason for the poetic excitement does not seem to lie in whether or not it represents the “native land”, “natural”, “people” or “soul” of its own country. What is important is that what he describes can arouse the readers’ profound feeling of being transnational, cross-social, cross-cultural and inter-generational. In short, what he describes is universal. In my opinion Yang key’s view is not wide, but can be said that some narrow and extreme. Not afraid of being misunderstood, I think this view is a bit unilateral and creates the limitations of his writing. In fact, on the contrary, this limitation is the key to universality.
