Chronological poetry was originally housed in plastic sleeves in 3-ring binders, with a title page in the first sleeve and then two poems or pages of poems per sleeve. In some cases, the author included a significantly later version of a poem in with the original version of the poem, even if the later version was dated many years (or decades) later. Each voluem of poems in this series have been removed from the plastic sleeves and binders and transferred to acid free folders, one volume per folder.
