could anyone recommend a good poem concerning grief and loss, that isn't 'funeral blues' or that other one - and that isn't sickly sweet or overly cynical? or, to put it in a more pop-lol-facebook way that you crazy kids can get fleeky hip with: what is you favorite poem about grief, word?!

Are you looking for grief in the abstract or a personal experience?

For me this one is perfect, for the way we cling to details and the way each loss is mourned with each subsequent loss.
