The images of the oceans often inspire us to take a poetic lift of the spirit for an escape from the daily boredom or troubles related to the social restriction based on the ideological hierarchy.On the other hand,however,the collective human desires have no good ethics to discipline the insatiable enjoyment that has obviously damaged the environment and polluted the oceans.In this short paper,I focus on the concepts of the time event,Aion and Chronos,with the three poems related to the images of the oceans written by a Taiwan Residents poet,Hui Tong;I also try to understand how the origin of the water on our Earth comes from.In fact,our Earth has the“liquid”oceans on the surface and also the hidden“solid”oceans,the blue crystal rocks called ringwoodite,within Earth’s mantle.The oceans absorb heat and the tiny ocean plants called phytoplankton drifting with the oceanic currents produce oxygen through photosynthesis for the human health as well.But the contemporary environmental problem is that the chronic damages of the biodiversity by the human collective desires have affected the oceans to become seriously polluted.Therefore,we have the feelings of ambivalence toward the images of the oceans:tranquility,transience,creativity,oblivion or corruption and hostility for the human bad habits.
