Ah, it always helps to have extra paper around!

I did a study abroad in the Netherlands, years back. I'm a bit ashamed to admit that I didn't bother to check out any Dutch poets, or to learn much Dutch. On consulting my memory, the only Dutch vocabulary I have left is words for various food items, "alstublieft," "roken is verboden," and the correct pronunciation of "van Gogh."

Are there any Dutch poets with English translations you'd recommend?
