Early in 2008, a group of Chinese scholars and poets from Nanjing produced a billboard of good and bad poems published in 2007. The number one on the bad poem list is a poem entitled A Note on Mountain Kongdong by Yisha (Wu Wenjian), which was published in the most famous mainstream (government sponsored) magazine Poetry Journal (《诗刊》). The poem reads:

《崆峒山小记》
　　　　　　伊沙
上去时和下来时的感觉
是非常不同的——

上去的时候
那山隐现在浓雾之中

下来的时候
这山暴露在艳阳之下

像是两座山
不知哪座更崆峒

不论哪一座
我都爱着这崆峒

因为这是
多年以来——

我用自己的双脚
踏上的头一座山
　　2006.7

My literal translation (Kongdong as the name of the mountian is kept, as the name is homophonic to the phrase meaning Empty):

　A Note on Mountain Kongdong
　　　　　　　　　　　by Yisha
The feeling of going up and that of coming down
are quite different--

When I went up
the mountian was at times seen in thick fog

When I came down
the mountain was exposed in the bright sun

They appeared to be two mountains
I did not know which one is more Kongdong

No matter what
I love this Kongdong just the same

Because this is
for so many years

the first mountain
I have climbed with my own feet

The chaos of contemporary poetry scene is partially attributed to the ungoverned overflow of so-called colloquial poetry, which has been ridiculed as being written with "enter" key only. By "ungoverned" is meant that, apart from what Heaney calls "the government of tongue," poetry-writing has become so easy a thing that whatever written in lines are styled as poems and that there is no agreed-on standard as to what is a poem. These poem-makers on the one hand obviously advocate the free-publication on the internet (free from the government censorship) while on the other hand reject the so-called "cloister school" (mainly more intellectually difficult university campus poets).
