Dongpo wrote this poem in Huangzhou three years after being released from prison due to the famous The Poetry Case at the Crows Court, a false charge lodged by his political rivals. He wrote this on a long scroll (199.5 cm x 34.2 cm), and the calligraphy, which captures so much of the moment, has been regarded as the 3rd on the top list of Chinese semi-cursive script, and the calligraphy has exceeded the poem in popularity ever since. The original scroll can still be appreciated in the Royal Palace Museum in Taiwan, together with comments handwritten by Huang Tingjian, Emperor Gaozong (Qin Dynasty), and many other notable men in history. It is an invaluable asset of art.

The last two lines enrich our association with the great saint figure Confucius, highlighting Su Shi’s mindset of living a detached life as a commoner. ..The fire in his spirit went from waning to robust, and to detached in the end, enriched with a cynical taste of self-ridicule humour. A similar scenario often appears in other artistic forms, particularly in Chinese calligraphy, where even a subtle change in style can reveal some fundamental shifts in the artist’s mental state, as calligraphy can not be disguised with colours or other properties.
