i found it was so easy to follow what they others thought was right and in all honesty, many times they were, and the poem was made whole 
but sometimes the they weren't in unison and i tried to please everyone instead of trying to please myself. but isn't that why we edit, edits help us find our own voice. my other big faults was thinking better poets gave better feedback.. not a word of it pick what you thinks works and discard what you think doesn't. it can be fiddly but worth it in the end.
just read leanne's response and i agree that stepping back from a poem is often worth more than a few edits.
