So firstly, sorry to everyone because I appreciate I'm asking a lot of questions, but why google when I have you experts to ask instead? I need some guidance on late half of the 20th century/Modern poets to read. I've been through collections by the "masters" as it were. I enjoyed Keats, Hardy, I think Larkin might've changed my life (but that's for another discussion) and have always loved Bukowski; but if anyone wants to chuck a few names, (not necessarily in the vain of my previous mentions) my way on this thread I would be really grateful. Who do you guys dig?

Ha, not bad thanks @Adam Gary. So I'm waiting for the books of the above to arrive (cant be doing with Kindle for poetry) finished you book, amazing; honourable mentions for "Forgiven" and "Tonight I Light a Candle" . And now, I'm killing time with Shakespeare's Sonnets. I know you like the format, but I struggled when I tried my own so thought I'd refer back to the master for a bit of "upskilling". I can write one, I'm sure of it, I just think it's quite subject led, more than I appreciated. So yeah man, I went from your work to Shakespeare 😅
