 诗词评析：

        "行"是古诗的一种体裁。"贫交"指人与人在窘迫时建立的友谊。
有些人交朋友，翻手覆手之间，一会儿像云，一会儿像雨，变化无常。这种轻浮、薄情的交往，多么地让人不屑一顾！你看古人管仲和鲍叔牙的友情并未因贫富发生变化，这种美德却被现在的人们弃如粪土。
        通过这首诗，诗人对当时社会上人与人交往中的趋炎附势、见利忘义等种种假、恶、丑的行为进行了尖锐批判，对古人那种贫富不移的友情观表达了自己的怀念和向往。

"行" is an ancient poem style. "贫交" refers to friendship established in the time of difficulty.
Some people are changeable to their friends, like the clouds turn into the rain in the wink of an eye. How despicable is this frivolous and fickle relations! The friendship between Guan Zhong and Bao Shuya in the ancient time never changed no matter in good time or in bad time. However this kind of virtue is cast away like dirt by people today.
The poet repudiated the false, evil and ugly behaviors in the society at that time, such as fawning upon the rich and powerful persons and forgetting friendship for profit in interpersonal exchanges, and expressed his yearnings for the unswerving amity between people whether in face of poverty or wealth in ancient times.
