I like to put words in my bookshelf. This is a very special bookshelf though, because books don't fit in there.

My bookshelf has 3 layers, and different words can fit on different layers. Here are some examples:

Bottom Layer Middle Layer Top Layer
STATE COUNTRY FLAG
YELLOW BROWN BLACK
WEIGHT NEWTON MASS
EQUAL TWENTY-ONE ADD
DELETE RETURN BACK
LEG BONE HAND
QUARTER PENNY HALF
TOP BOTTOM ALL
WORDS PROVERB BLANK

Now that you've seen some examples, please tell me: which literary genre could I fit into two different layers of my bookshelf?


CSV version:

Bottom Layer,Middle Layer,Top Layer
STATE,COUNTRY,FLAG
YELLOW,BROWN,BLACK
WEIGHT,NEWTON,MASS
EQUAL,TWENTY-ONE,ADD
DELETE,RETURN,BACK
LEG,BONE,HAND
QUARTER,PENNY,HALF
TOP,BOTTOM,ALL
WORDS,PROVERB,BLANK

Bottom layer has words which

do not contain letters on a keyboard's bottom row -> Z,X,C,V,B,N,M

Middle layer has words which

do not contain letters on a keyboard's middle row -> A,S,D,F,G,H,J,K,L

Top layer has words which

do not contain letters on a keyboard's top row -> Q,W,E,R,T,Y,U,I,O,P

So a literary genre which could fit in two different layers is

poetry as this could go in the bottom or middle rows.

And noticed by J.E "books" doesn't fit in the bookshelf, because

the word contains letters from all three rows.
