dimension whenever I need indented lines:
\startpoem
This is line one,
\hskip1em{This is line two}
This is line three,
\hskip1em{This is line four,}
\hskip1em{This is line five.}

Hello,
I needed to typeset some poetry and noticed that
\startlines[space=on]
Some line with tab % doesn't work, no spaces added
Some line with spaces %work
\stoplines
Is there a way to make the "tab" render the space "as is"?
