Regarding how to present a poem, I've had to research this a few times
and another option was to use definition lists. I hadn't discovered
using the pre element. So I looked it up (below). It does seem like
it could be a perfect solution... hmmm...
THE PRE ELEMENT
W3C info: Preformatted text: The PRE elementPreformats text with fixed-
width font, preserves the given white-space and line-breaks, usually
disables automatic word-wrapping. Used in the code examples on this
page, for example:
<pre>
<ul>
<li> </li>
<li> </li>
<li> </li>
</ul>
</pre>
Like the BR element, though, the PRE element has been abused and used
to force line breaks for text formatting when CSS and other elements
can be used appropriately instead. Just like I mention about the BR
element, use the PRE element judiciously.
