The purpose of "Mangpai" is threefold: to find distant places, wine and women. Now the rough people in the 1980s are wandering in the distance, crazy in the wine and writing plays in women's lust. Some are still coquettish, and some are already the same as this era. After discussing whether poetry is a minority, they are even ashamed to talk about poetry.
In recent years, I have been fascinated by the "boorish school" poems, and I can almost recite 24 Hexi Corridor poems by Li Yawei. Modern poetry has always given me the feeling that it is contrary to the artistic conception and style of those ancient poems we recited since childhood. I don't know what I'm talking about. It doesn't rhyme or look good. Except for a few songs that are either a little clever or a little chicken soup, few people take them seriously.
With the growth of my age, I no longer feel small, fresh and bitter. The irrationality, anti-culture and great deconstruction of "vulgarism" strongly shocked and reshaped me.

Excerpts from Hexi Corridor
Li Yawei has too many good poems. He is my favorite poet in China today. Others, such as Ma Song and Wan Xia, also like several songs very much.
