I may be missing the point, but what's wrong with

#(define verse '(
"If you can keep your head when all about you"
"Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,"
"If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,"
"But make allowance for their doubting too"
; ... etc
))

\markuplist \column-lines #verse
