Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Walt Whitman

Explanation:

Walt Whitman is usually called "the father of the free verse". Whitman had to self-publish the first book of poems, Leaves of Grass, with his own money in 1855. It was considered too off the standards of British poetry of the time. 

Even if it is considered one of his greatest books to this day, only the few copies were sold and it received very mixed reviews at the time, especially because of the free verse he used.
