Poetry is generally five-character style, with seven-character style or free style in the middle, and most of them only talk about tunes without rhyme. Generally, the tunes are simple, with little change, not strict rhythm and unlimited length, including ancient songs, logical words, witch songs, bitter songs, anti-tune, love songs and children's songs.
