Simon Chiatante, the organizer, was even asked to read one of his poems in Italian. Definitely a multicultural gathering, very representative of the city of Shenzhen.<\/p>\n<p>The conversation then focused on a couple of focal points for modern poets. First the most universal question on &#8220;Why do you write poetry?&#8221; was asked to everyone. After reading a couple of Chinese poems by some of the participants and of nonsense poems by Daniel Fuller, the association brough up the concept of semantics in poetry: how ancient Chinese poetry (especially Tang poetry) and nonsense poetry both express meaning implicitly, without exposing their contents clearly and rationally.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4111\" src=\"https:\/\/inkwell.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/WechatIMG510.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inkwell.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/WechatIMG510.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/inkwell.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/WechatIMG510-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/inkwell.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/WechatIMG510-16x12.jpeg 16w, https:\/\/inkwell.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/WechatIMG510-120x90.jpeg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><br \/>\nAn inspiring talk that will definitely lead to deeper reflections and displayed the literary reality of this colourful metropolis.
