Why it surfaced
Poem Index currently lists 638 poems and promises to set them as their printed sources set them—a small but unusually specific editorial choice. Its catalogue ranges from Shakespeare and Whitman to Mina Loy and Frances Ellen Watkins Harper, with sorting that invites browsing rather than mere lookup.
