So I got an amazon gift card for my birthday and I was thinking of getting a collection of poetry. I already have all the romtanic poets and the recent hardbacks of John Ashbery. and all of Emily Dickinson. What do you guys think I should get? I kinda like depressing lonely poems. I can only read English btw.

uh, Sidney Lanier?
if you like Hopkins striving to create sprung meter, he effectively did the same thing at the same time, but as a Confederate Veteran that loved to play flute.

here's a sample
