Scaruffi's Best Poetry of All Time (1900-Present)

These are the best books of poetry/poems according to Piero Scaruffi in order of release from newest to oldest. I stopped at the beginning of the 20th century, but another list will come shortly. In all reality, this is a bonkers list which demonstrates the ridiculousness of Scaruffi. First of all, there's no way Scaruffi reads all these languages and to really be a good judge of the quality of the poetry, you have to read it in the original language the poet wrote it in. Secondly, so many important poems/people are left out, just to name a few: no "Howl" (not even on his honorable mention list), no "Ariel", no Bob Frost, no Liz Bishop.
