I have fiction, probably two boxes, not much on shelves. I majored in Lit. I read non fiction more so past twenty years or so. Revisit some old books of fiction now and then. SF I devoured from 8-30. Non fiction reading more or less like Philosophy. Though I agree biography, history, political science and psychology can contain much fiction. Poetry I read. For instance the Lake Poets. Yeats. Others.
I am a book man. Even to this day, in a tiny apartment, aside from a few shelves I have about six boxes left. Ebooks about 1,000 non-fiction, poetry. I even worked in bookstores both in Sacramento and San Francisco-new and used. If I had ducats I would open a shop.
So, no fiction in your collection. Are classics still fiction.
A *how to* book is, if useful, appropriately classified as non-fiction. But works of opinion, which most writing is, are fiction ( in my opinion) eg history, biographies, philosophy. Whereas classics which deserve study eg: The Iliad, The Bible, 1984, could even be called non- fiction.
*Non-fiction* is a silly term, implying that the work is fact.
We are now finding that much science is fiction, even when it isn't marketed as *science-fiction*.
The "immune system," according to several "doctors," doesn't develop until age two, which makes sense, if the immune system is actually the body's memories of fighting off pathogens. If this theory is true, "natural immunity" is a lifelong process.
Poisoning infants and, for that matter, anyone, with injections that are supposed to create such memories has never been proven particularly beneficial, but the harm such injections ("vaccines") cause has been widely documented.
“We have not yet begun to fight.”

Good poem.
I was a participant in 1987 in a 72 hour poetry marathon in front of a cafe in Sacramento. Brecht I read, others.
When the internet goes down and we regret getting rid of our books, poetry might be our way of passing on our stories.
Especially rhyming poetry, where there's a chance of remembering it to recite around the fire.
