Have you tried creating a 2-column table in word. Then cut and paste into your post on here. Doesn't work for comments but I'm sure it works for postings.
Actually it doesn't - I've just tried it. Only other thing I can think of is to paste it in as a jpeg or something.
I think I tried when we were to try to do a 'cleave poem' for IP about 5 years ago, but ended up just indenting and italicising the secondary part in one vertical column. I think you can put the same number of spaces between the two first lines, the two second lines etc and it will probably stay in 2 columns, but may not stay neat! Rhiannon
When we did visual poetry some time ago, I think I pasted it as a pdf, but I can't remember clearly now. Rhiannon

Thanks scorpio. I'm stumped as well. Maybe a jpeg, yes.

Thanks Rhiannon. Very kind of you both to help. I might try the jpeg or pdf option. xx
