Poet who first penned the phrase "no country for old men" (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

yeats

(Other definitions for yeats that I've seen before include "he wrote" , "literary figure" , "W. B. -- , Irish poet/dramatist" , "Irish poet and dramatist, d. 1939" , "Irish poet (The Winding Stair)" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
