It seems to me that I could instead use
Code:
div.poem, div.letter, div.telegram, etc. {
/* common block stuff here */
}
div.poem {
/* poem specific stuff here */
}
I don't know if one is better than the other.

I think it’s ok to use blockquote for those things too, given that they are quotes from an outside source. Admittedly feels a little weird in conversation to “quote” a sign, but I think it does make some sense in a markup semantics context.
