I moved the text over to MS Word and it looks fine but when copied back to BD goes to a shortened right indent, kinda like verse:

Needless to say, this looks really bad in an lrf converted book.
What I see is that is one of those downloaded LIT files made from a poorly formatted text file tossed into Word and just output as it.

Most legit payed for LIT ebooks will come out quite nice. And lit2lrf does a heck of a nice job converting and it's so eay to use too.
