You can play with something based on the following, which I made it
following suggestions from others. There may well be other ways, but
this works for me.
\define\Poemindent{3em}
\define\Poeminset{14em}
\definedelimitedtext[Poe]
\setupwhitespace[medium]
\showframe
\startbuffer[Poem]
This is a long line that breaks,
the second line,
the third line.
The second stanza starts.
\stopbuffer
\setupdelimitedtext[Poe][
rightmargin=\Poeminset,
leftmargin={\dimexpr\Poemindent+\Poeminset\relax},
before={\setuplines[
before=,
inbetween={\blank[small]},
after=,
]
\startlines
\setupindenting[-\Poemindent,yes]
\startparagraph},
after=\stopparagraph
\stoplines,
]
\starttext
\startparagraph
Here comes a poem – watch the lines break!
\stopparagraph
\startPoe
\inlinebuffer[Poem]
\stopPoe
\startparagraph
Now, it is gone. Good-bye.
\stopparagraph
\stoptext
