Beat poet? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pound

This clue is a double definition.

'beat' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'poet?' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in other clues)

(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 Times.
