Gabriela Mistral, Kwame Dawes, and Gwendolyn Brooks are missing, so the list is incomplete.
But, from the available options:
- Langston Hughes
- Emily Dickinson
- Maya Angelou
- Sylvia Plath
Queen Maya rules

My personal favorite is Langston Hughes, but I think the most iconic poet is Edgar Allan Poe.

Of course the poll would end up an US-centric mess.

Walt Whitman was the first one that came to mind, but I low-key thought of Spike Milligan and Carol Ann Duffy too
