What's the correct way to mix high level objects and absolute positioning?

I have problems mixing them.
Suppose that I add Paragraphs to the Document and need to add an absolute
element through ColumnText because I have additional requirements that I
can't realize with high level objects:

document.add(new Paragraph("Hallo 1"));
document.add(new Paragraph("Hallo 2"));
document.add(new Paragraph("Hallo 3"));
ColumnText  boxText = new ColumnText();
// set additional ColumnText properties such that it shows a box of wrapped
text.
document.add(new Paragraph("Hallo 4"));
document.add(new Paragraph("Hallo 5"));

My problem: how do I make sure that "Hallo 4" appears below the boxText
instance? 
How should I solve these kind of problems?
(I get the idea that when I start adding absolute positioned elements, I
have to continue with absolute positioned elements to overcome the above
problems)

Thanks,
- Ed
