Do you view poetry as fiction or non fiction?
I track my reading in a notebook and track stats such as nonfiction/fiction. This year I am trying to read more poetry but having now finished my first collection I don’t know which it is!
But is non fiction as it’s about how the poet views the world around them but not 100% convinced! I also can see the argument that poems are fiction and not real. Is it more of a poem by poem thing?
Any thoughts on how others view poetry greatly appreciated!
