Coleridge slaps. Also Kubla Khan mercifly tells you that it’s drug poetry right away, so it’s easy to understand as the “fragment of a dream” or whatever he calls it.
I like the 17th century lyric poetry (Donne, Marvell, etc) though. Very intricate, but in an accessible way (just follow the complex sentence).
