Sorry for not being precise enough.
I'm not sure I understand. This example shows two poems side by side. Both are totally different in structure. One has a heading, and consists of multiple paragraphs. The other is just one long stanza. Until now, I've used tabulate for these kind of sidebyside texts. Usually there are not poems, just regular paragraphs, but with poems I've realized that blanks seem not be supported in individual table cells.

\startbuffer[lines1]
\startlines[inbetween={\blank}]
this
is
a
poem
with
one
longer
stanza
\stoplines
\stopbuffer
\startbuffer[lines2]
\startlines[inbetween={\blank}]

here is
another one
and another one

Just the buffers.
One:
\getbuffer[lines1]
Two:
\getbuffer[lines2]
Via paragraphs
\defineparagraphs[paraverse][n=2 ]
\setupparagraphs[paraverse][1][
width=.45\textwidth, distance=2em,
align={verytolerant,stretch}]
\startparaverse
\getbuffer[lines1]
\nextparaverse
\getbuffer[lines2]
\stopparaverse
Via tabulate
\starttabulate[|p|p|]
\NC \getbuffer[lines1]
\NC \getbuffer[lines2]
\NC\NR
\stoptabulate
