    “The World Doesn’t End” by Charles Simic

    “Deaf Republic” by Ilya Kaminsky

    “Catalogue of Unabashed Gratitude” by Ross Gay

    “Words for Empty and Words for Full” by Bob Hicok

    “Life on Mars” by Tracy K. Smith

    Those are books that have personally influenced me deeply. Other poets I like but haven’t read deeply are Rainer Maria Rilke, T.S. Elliot, Wendel Berry, W.H. Auden.
