I went to Google and typed in the following phrase:
Richard Wright's poetry
A number of hits came up that. Maybe one of them can help you.

I tried to google it too, and a lot of webbies came up, although i admit most were about haikus. However i found a list of all his poetry books; this might sound old-fashioned but how about borrowing a couple of his poetry books from your local library? If you want a list of all his works look up the books on amazon.com. Hope that helps a little!

Hmmm...I was not aware that he did poetry (outside of Haiku). He is best known for his short stories and novels (Black Boy/Native Son), and didn't pick up poetry until the end of his writing career - and that, of course was Haiku as he became enamored with the Japanese style and culture.
I'll watch this question carefully since I really thought he did not write poetry outside of haiku.
