Sometimes, i find it hard to categorize a work based on the given choices.
I hope I'm not the only one. =P

Same here...
I have that problem, like,
Always.

I generally end up choosing "people" because it's the most generic one...

Alright thanks, I've added all of them with the exception of "Chapter"; this category will come into play later in another system we are working on.

Any other suggestions?

I think "Pain" would be good, but it needs to be more generalized. How about "Emotion", or something of the like?

Since haiku is a style of poetry, I think that is just as necessary as "Free Verse", so I believe it should stay.

Haiku is fun....My recent poem Seasons was based on a very very old Haiku attempt of mine...I rewrote it as a 'real' poem as I didn't feel it was good enough...here's the original Haiku - not really true Haiku but follows the rules....

The Four Seasons
by Simon Cook
(C) 2001

Petulant Roses.
Your thorns are angry and sharp,
How you greet summer?,

Your beauty surpasses all,
Forgetting your angry bite

Leaves fall on me,
Gold brown rain fall from the trees,
Nature's free blanket

Beauty disappears quickly,
Replaced by depression

Beautiful snowflake,
Your form pure and innocent,
Crystal perfection.

Limited lifespan you have,
Crashing to the earth below.

Flowers surface new,
Faces reaching the sunlight,
A new beginning

Rain upsets the calm retreat,
Of winters beastly anger.

 
To be or not to be....that is totally illogical captain.....Spock.

@Caleb: Well, I don't write poetry, but I don't think specific styles of poetry should be added. It's what the poem's about that's important, IMO.

==Princess of the Sword==

Chapter 3

Dri focused on the glass sphere that relaxed in a velvet cushion, the creak of the bow dispelled the suffocating silence, his lips tightened into a thin line as he drew it back and his green eyes sharpened. A sigh escaped him as he relaxed the bow.

“No.” he breathed, disappointment soured his face, “not good enough....
