The Dawn is just outside the Cobweb
---to suicided胡鑫宇
If your house is on fire
Escape if you cannot put it out
You’ll have a clear life to set about
If your town is flooded
Flow down if you can’t climb high
Nature follows a better course than die
There would be a long way to traverse
And a full life, versed more diverse
Why take the short cut to a shorn tree
If not the glee in ski
Or the free style in swimming pool
Life is not just home or school
There is a vast world out in light
If you rage against the good night
If you can’t be a prince therein
Why not get away a Huckleberry Finn
Things are never that bad, still
At least you have your free will
When your are suppose to break out hard
You turned out a skeleton in the backyard
You are smart to discover life’s meaningless
But not wise enough to shape it to happiness

This reads like the author wants to give some life advice.Unfortunately nothing is explained.It is not clear how the advice should be put into practice.But hey what would I know
it is kind of vague, if you had not experienced the kind of school life in this country which is almost prison-like, or like a military camp.
and this is not some advice on life, but an elegy, about the so-called education in this country which is killing kids
it is about a recent tragedy. one night this highshooler was missing from his dorm despite all the security cameras. A massive search went on for more than three months afterwards. I t was recently found out the body had been hanging right in the small wood grove at the schoolyard. the student had recorded his attempts of suicide in his recording device for being unendurable of the pressure of school and meaninglessness of life.
