I wanted to use org-mode and blorg.el to make some web pages on my local
intranet. Some of the text is poetry and I am having some difficulty in
working out how to keep it in the form I want. I'm not sure if this is
the right place to ask this.

I am familiar with LaTeX and have used the memoir class a few times. I
know that org-mode can use latex packages in fragments, but could I use
memoir in the same way to help me to format my poems or can I use some
other method such as <pre>poem</pre>. Is there a proper org-mode way of
doing this? Would putting <br> at the end of every line do the job, or
could I (hopefully with guidance form some kind person) make a macor to
do this for me.

Shelagh

ps. I think I've actually got more writing and stuff done (even off the
computer) since I found org-mode a few weeks ago than I have for a long
time.

There's a fine line between standing on the shore looking foolish and fishing.

From the manual
(http://staff.science.uva.nl/~dominik/Tools/org/org.html#Enhancing-text)
:

Lines starting with `:' are also typeset in fixed-width font.

C-c :
    Toggle fixed-width for entry (QUOTE) or region, see below. 

Hope that helps
Christian

Another possibility might be

@<pre>
   As /plain/ this snipped can't be sold
   Because it still makes some words *bold*
   But form and shape are kept quite well
   Through its implicit line-break spell.
@</pre>
