I appreciate this link to an article on a challenging point for poets. In the MFA class I took on this issue, a variety of organizations in very good poetry books. But still, the personal decision of what order one's own poems might best take was presented as just that -- a personal decision. I wish the advice from this essay had been introduced in that class on arrangement. Thanks for hooking poets up to some valuable guidance.
