Beat poet (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

Which length description are you looking for?:

5

7,8

I believe this is a double definition.

'beat' is the first definition.

(I know this)

(Other definitions for pound that I've seen before include "Sixteen ounces" , "Caged poet" , "Hit repeatedly; coin" , "Enclosure for stray animals" , "Author" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent and The Times.
