Wislawa Szymborska, who won the 1996 Nobel Prize for Literature, is pretty great. Check out a collection of her work titled "View with a Grain of Sand" (https://www.amazon.com/View-Grain-Sand-Selected-Poems/dp/0156002167)

Pablo Neruda, who won the 1971 Nobel Prize for Literature, is maybe my favorite writer of any kind. He's the king of imagery, IMO. One of his most famous books is "100 Love Sonnets." You can find it here: https://www.amazon.com/100-Love-Sonnets-sonetos-American/dp/0292760280

Ovid, who never won a Nobel Prize because he is like 2000 years old, is really funny and writes a lot about how to pick up girls - in ancient Rome. He lived around the time of Christ and it's cool to read something from that period that's so vividly human. "The Erotic Poems" are winners. (https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/35010/the-erotic-poems/)

Other commenters have suggested Whitman, Emerson, and Bukowski. Those writers are all killers too.
