[texhax] book of poems

[Arno Trautmann]

Hi!

I want to typeset a book of poems. There is one problem I don’t have any
clue how to solve …
If a line of type is too wide, it must be broken. But as the lines in
poems are fixed, it mostly is set like (monospaced font!):

This is a very short poem to show the
And this is the next line!       [problem]

So the last word (or two, maybe), is set in the next line if that is
short enough.
Has anyone an idea how this could be implemented? Maybe a first step
would be an implementation like

This is a very short poem to show the
                                 [problem]
And this is the next line!

That already would help me much!

cheers
Arno
