Whitman praised Lincoln's poems. John Keating asked the students to call him Captain at the beginning. He wanted to be the Lincoln who could liberate the students' souls. Finally, when John Keating left, the students sent their hearts free with great nostalgia and gratitude. Their captain, a man who can liberate the bondage of other people's hearts, is like giving them a new life, which is more touching than the life that really gave them, until he had to leave, completely awakened the children who were repressed The soul that should have been free and unrestrained for a long time, captain, my captain, I am lost in this vast sea, can you still light a beacon for me and give me a direction when I am lost.
In other words, the captain didn't do anything, he just let us free our hearts to write poetry, what is poetry, he is not a form, it is completely the dance of the soul and the burst of passion, and it is also the person who reads him to experience it with heart, Otherwise, you may think it is beautiful, but not necessarily, the poet you don't necessarily understand can't understand his poetry, and vice versa.
He covered Todd's eyes and let his mind play freely. The first thought that jumped into his mind was his most beautiful verse. Poetry is a tool, and he is the most elusive and mastery tool, a tool used to praise or curse a person or thing.
Our ideals and hopes are also the same. He is the initial expression of your heart, but due to the constraints of the environment or pressure, you can't achieve them. The suppressed pain cannot be released. John Keating has given children a kind of strength, a A force that is loyal to their own ideals, they are the freshest of life, living individuals, they should not be bound by their parents, and cannot be suppressed by a system of education, from the day they are born, they are themselves, not others or others. It should not be suppressed by the will of others. It is like a poem, like running water. It has their direction to flow freely. Forcibly changing the river can only make their running water no longer clear and lively. They have the most vulnerable appearances, like Todd, who can only obey his parents' orders, and he has a wonderful elder brother as an example, he at first dared not do anything against the system, even free verses, not dare to express. But after he was inspired by his captain, in his own dreams, in addition to the most wonderful and profound verses flowing from his mouth, some of which we can sometimes enjoy as flowers, because he is pleasing to the eye, and even, some of us can Read it as a philosophy, and Todd's poems are full of such potential. In the end, John Keating was going to leave them. He was the weakest rebel, and his resistance was indeed the strongest. He did not give the traitor a blow in the face, but dared to challenge his highest authority in front of the principal, In order to finally achieve the ideal in their hearts, they pay tribute to the captain who inspired the potential in their hearts.
Goodbye my captain, but I have found my purpose.
