try Shakespeare and Bukowski. google search. They are so radically different, it may be likely that you enjoy one but not the other.
also, try Billy Collins. He's very accessible.

Maybe you could scan the poems in the "Favorite Poem" thread to see the poems favoured by some members.

they can be poems by anyone. It doesn't matter as long as I get the name of who wrote it.

Allen Ginsberg, S.T. Coleridge, Robert Hayden, Robert Frost, William Blake, and William Wordsworth are some poets who I really enjoy
Okay, I'm working on something. If I get to be satisfied with it I'll share it with you.they can be poems by anyone. It doesn't matter as long as I get the name of who wrote it.
Great signature by the way.
I hate Philip Larkin's poetry - that's pretty divisive. Have a look at some of that.
"I should only believe in a God that would know how to dance. And when I saw my devil, I found him serious, thorough, profound, solemn: he was the spirit of gravity- through him all things fall. Not by wrath, but by laughter, do we slay. Come, let us slay the spirit of gravity!" - Nietzsche
Thanks everyone! I finally finished my project!!!
