Also while I'm here, is there a specific book/primer/guide you'd recommend for a n00b trying to get more familiar with Chinese poetry in general?
In 2020, I read feyburner's "I hope you'll come and meet me" MDZS fic (what a good) and learned that the title is "from 'On Climbing Orchid Mountain in the Autumn to Zhang' by Tang dynasty poet Meng Haoran" and have been obsessed with that poem's translation since then. I like to imagine that that poem is the content sequel to the Soviet animated short-film Hedgehog in the Fog.
I wanted to learn more about chinese poetry since then but haven't known where to start from. So, more poetry content is a big yes from me.
