What poets do you recommend for vivid imagery?

I’ve read the usual suspects—Plath, Neruda, Sexton—but I’m craving something with sharper edges. Not just ‘pretty’ descriptions, but lines that carve a scene into your skull. Think concrete details over abstract mush... who’s known for that? I’m thinking of someone like Mary Oliver’s early work, where the pond isn’t just a pond, it’s a whole universe of algae and light. Any names? Or should I dig deeper into the Beat poets??
