The key poems would be all of them (any of the ones in power and conflict).

It’s better to learn all of them as any of them can come up, yes even tissue.

i think the best ones to learn is ozymandias, london, kamikaze, exposure and maybe my last duchess or bayonet charge?

There are no "Key poems" all of them are important
If you're asking which ones are the easiest to connect to others;
Ozymandias is a must. You can pretty much link this in 1 way or another to any other poem. Everyone focuses on learning ozymandias. Although, you might be cooked if the exam board chooses ozymandias.
I personally then found London to be the easiest to remember.
Bayonet charge is good if you're primarily focusing on the conflict part
Last duchess is great for the power part
