The background of Guo Moruo when he wrote <Tengu>.

At the beginning, the poet called himself "Tengu", which can swallow the moon, the sun, and all the planets. And "I am what I am" is a sense of pride brought about by the full expression of individuality. Therefore, it is the poet's hymn to the liberation of individuality in the light of the spirit of May Fourth, and it is precisely because of the courage to break through all the constraints on the development of individuality that individuality can be fully developed that the May Fourth newcomers have unlimited energy: "I am the total amount of energy in the whole temple!" Such a new May Fourth generation will change the mountains, the rivers, the earth, and the universe. "I fly, I scream wildly, I burn ......." The emotional power unleashed by the verses was like a violent hurricane and a rushing torrent, creating a strong shock wave in that era. "I run" is an exhilarating cry, fully demonstrating the painful course of individuality liberation in the May Fourth period. In a word, "Tengu" is a thrilling spiritual hymn played in the May Fourth period. It was the first time in the May 4th period that people heard the brave and roaring voice of the times in poetry. The grandeur of "Tengu" that can swallow "all the planets" is the spiritual reproduction of the May 4th period that demanded the destruction of all traditions and the old world.

And "Tengu" is only a small wave of the poet's emotion and art collision, fusion and splash in the creation of "Goddess". It can be seen, "Goddess" creation of imagination of the rich and peculiar, the lyricism of the bold and enthusiastic is known as the world of poetry. Its unparalleled romanticism art color will be a beam of dazzling light shining through the corridor of poetic art; its burning verses are like a clamorous heat wave, roaring the strongest sound of the May Fourth era.
