Today - Mar 21 乱世哪里还有湖畔?


Mar 21, 2006
Jack Dorsey, the founder of Twitter, sent the world's first tweet: "just setting up my twttr.”

第二年,2007年,中国大陆曾流行过一个仿制Twitter的即时通讯工具,2009年被禁,还有人记得吗?
记得不记得都算了,请勿留言。


Today is World Poetry Day.
World Poetry Day is celebrated on 21 March, and was declared by UNESCO (the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) in 1999.
"Arranged in words, coloured with images, struck with the right meter, the power of poetry has  no  match. As an  intimate  form  of  expression  that  opens  doors  to  others,  poetry  enriches the dialogue that catalyses  all  human  progress,  and  is more necessary than ever in turbulent times."
—  Audrey Azoulay, Director-General, on the occasion of 2022 World Poetry Day
如今有多少人还会特意去读诗、写诗?丰富而贫瘠的年代。
你有没有读过让你终生难忘的一句诗?那年你几岁?
我有。
我来到这个世界上,
只带着纸、绳索和身影,
为了在审判之前,
宣读那些被判决的声音。
- 北岛《我不相信》
  那年我16岁。

Robert Southey,English poet, died at age 68. 

你有没有听说过“湖畔诗人”(the Lake Poets)?
指的是19世纪早期的三位英国诗人,他们因常年住在the Lake District而得名:
William Wordsworth 华兹华斯
Samuel Taylor Coleridge 柯勒律治
Robert Southey 骚塞
