If you like Byron then you’ll be fine getting into poetry! I definitely recommend Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton! The best thing to do is get yourself an anthology of poems and start there! I started writing poetry in 2014, and I haven’t looked back since!
will do, thanks.
Unfortunately, I've not had a lot of exposure to poetry. An area of development. Though I have enjoyed Byron when I've read him,.

Sounds good - I'll try the Norton Poetry Anthology (6th) as a start. Thanks.
If you like Moshfegh, poets to try would be Kim Adonnizio, Frank O’Hara, Allen Ginsberg (HUGELY RECOMMEND), Gregory Corso & Diane Di Prima!
ok - just grabbed a copy of Ginsberg's Howl and Other Poems (City Lights Pocket Poets, No. 4) from Amazon. thanks. I'll check out the others as well.
You’re onto a winner with that one! When it comes, check out Allen Ginsberg reading poems on YouTube!
