Elizabeth Bishop - Well, "Crusoe in England" absolutely and unexpectedly broke my heart. I guess in general I like my poetry more blatantly angsty, though, and I'm not so much for the long and detailed descriptions.
Robert Lowell - Blah. I think his poetry got more tolerable as he aged, but I still don't care for it.
Dylan Thomas - I like him a lot. A little arcane, but really awesome imagery and gorgeous language. I suspect I may be a Romantic.
Philip Larkin - I also like him a lot! Which is funny, because he was writing in reaction to poets like Thomas. He's actually a very good technical writer, though, with a clear, strong voice.

James Dickey - He's okay. "The Sheep Child" is actually extremely awesome.
A.R. Ammons - Bores me.
