Xanadu by Coleridge, No Worst There is None by Hopkins. that second one is very sad though and it can be cathartic but might not be what your friend is in the mood for
Dream-Land by Poe has been one of my favorites since I was a kid.

The Emperor of Ice Cream by Wallace Stevens
The works of Shel Silverstein, especially if your friend likes the devil's lettuce. "The Great Smoke Off" and "The Perfect High".
I picked up a copy of “Pilgrim Bell” by Kaveh Akbar and I’ve really been enjoying it. “Seven Years Sober” is the one that comes to mind
Epigramm
- sor. Jaj Uram, engem bántanak.
- sor. Nekem hideg nyállal kenik homlokom is.
- sor. És bizonyos tekintetben mindig rúgnak hátulról.
- sor. Jaj, roppant hideg hagymákat eszek.
- sor. És nekem kezeim ragadnak.
- sor. Jaj, tele van a föld bévülről kukacokkal.
- sor. És most jut eszembe, hogy az ember nem él örökké.
- sor. Jaj Istenem, szerkesztő úr, mit tetszik szólni hozzá, hogy az ember meghal.
- sor. És fekete földben sötét homokot eszik ragadós gombócokba összeragadva.
- sor. Jaj keserű így az élet azér' mondom szerkesztő úr kérem, borzasztó nehéz
az ember élete itt ezen a földön, bizony, s a súlyos angyal letorpad. - sor. S fáklyáját lefelé fordítja.
Most of Saul Williams early stuff, "When the Clock Strikes Me" is one
