Poet no end upset! (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

donne

'poet' is the definition.
(John Donne, 1572-1631)

'no end upset' is the wordplay.
'upset' is an anagram indicator.
'no'+'end'='noend'
'noend' is an anagram of 'DONNE'.

(Other definitions for donne that I've seen before include "basic assumption" , "English preacher and metaphysical poet, d. 1631" , "John -, English poet" , "Writer of poetry" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
