For poetry that has non-regular indentations, I simply
\definelines[poem] and set that up the way I want, obviously, with
\setuplines[poem] e.g. [before={\blank
\setupinterlinespace[line=2.5ex]},after={\blank},indenting=first].
And then, but I guess it is still a hack, I use \hskip at a suitable
dimension whenever I need indented lines:
\startpoem
This is line one,
\hskip1em{This is line two}
This is line three,
\hskip1em{This is line four,}
\hskip1em{This is line five.}
\rightaligned{Poet's name}
\stoppoem
