此为清代学者赵翼的组诗名，这组诗为七言绝句，借议论表达了对诗歌创作的一些观点。是诗人为批驳当时社会上流行的“诗必称古”“厚古薄今”的观点而创作的。其中可以看出唐人杜甫《戏为六绝句》以及金人元好问《论诗绝句》的影响！

《论诗·其五》 赵翼

诗解穷人我未空，想因诗尚不曾工。
熊鱼自笑贪心甚，既要工诗又怕穷。

On Poetry (V)
Chao Yi

The best of poetry comes from the destitute, but my pocket is not yet empty;
I gather, it’s all because I haven’t perfected my skill as a poet.
Having fish to eat or bear’s paw? 1 I admit, I’m greedy for both:
I yearn for skill in poetry, yet how I dread being poor!

1. Alluding to a famous parable in the Meng-tzu, in which Mencius points out that when two delicacies, fish and bears’ paw, are placed before a person and he can only have one of the two to eat he has to make a difficult choice.
