I think it does make sense to list poetry separately, although a general search on Bookshare turns up only 654 poetry titles out of more than 40000. They don't turn up that often on the daily list.

Hmm. I think I've put requests for poetry in the fiction
section of the Wish List; c'est la vie. Some, especially
poetry for children, tell stories. Others, of course do
not.

Hi,

Sorry to nitpick, but poetry is generally considered
nonfiction.  I myself wouldn't classify it that

way,

but every poetry collection I've seen generally falls

into

the nonfiction category.  It therefore probably
shouldn't be listed as fiction.
