In a functional programming language each function ought to be independent and insensitive to order. Unfortunately, Clojure is sensitive to order, as you can see. Your top-down style of programming is really useful. You might consider using a tangle function (It is only a few lines of code) to extract the code in the order the compiler likes. This would allow you to continue to write in the order humans like. Instead of calling load to read the file, call your tangle function.
