Abstract: “City” in poetry is not only a metropolitan presentation but also a state of the soul, on the scene of which the poet puts individual life and take its impact on the soul as the object of poetic expression, In the presented view of the city life, the poet’s key centre remains to be the whispered narration of the soul and the feeling and the tangle of intelligenced inguiry. Hence the appropriate appellation for it should be “a book of the soul” in the city. The sensitivity, soft tenacity and occultness of the soul are of the same case with poetry. It is just with such a soul that metropolitan poetry is enabled to shun “the iconic deduction of city sociology” and gain the vitality of life, the soul and the fresh and soft quality of beauty. Metropolitan people and things can in the same and experienced bright knowledge of poets, who can very well deal comprehensively with the intentions of natural and metropolitan languages, the relusive life of the soul and the intervening existence, so as to express the fresh and soft feeling and the force of mixing on the part of the soul of modern people by means of a weird and tricky mix of what is more meaningful and more of the modern way be the new substrata of the imagination taste.
