There is, of course, another problem with the sample of poems. Let's say that one has a collection with four or five good poems and some insipid stuff for the remaining fifty pages. A publisher's instinct is to go for the "best" poems as he/she sees it, which a review should indicate the spread and try to capture the book holistically. The reprint option is generally pretty bad at that.
