>> Grin, go ahead and cite it. Processing disorder is nothing to be "ashamed" of, and if I /do/ keep it private for some misguided reason, it might NOT help someone else with a similar visual 'kink' in the slinky. <<

Done, and the post is up. Thanks for your insight.

>> I liked the first four lines.... <<

Yay!

>> Question... Can Dreamwidth show background color per line? <<

Maybe? So far the only thing I've done to change background color is making spoiler blanks. It's at the fringe of my "There is now a Level 0" coding expertise.

>> If you cluster not even every line, the first and last of each verse
HIGHLIGHT first line HIGHLIGHT END
second line
third line
HIGHLIGHT fourth line END HIGHLIGHT

that would be enough framework for a reference point. <<

I have seen poems with a subtle tone of light background on one line, darker background on next line, to make it easier to distinguish lines.

But the actual poem is on the Torn World website, which [personal profile] ellenmillion codes, so I have no idea what works there.

>> With the processing, it's eyes-skipping-all-over-the-page looking for signposts, like indents and spaces between paragraphs in one format, or solid margin, first line caps, etc,

But when I don't have those signposts, that all over skipping doesn't stop, so the eyestrain turns into headache in seconds. <<

That is a very clear explanation, thanks.
