One idea would be to make alternate lines align left and align right. This would not line up exactly on the previous line but the effect would be the same I believe from a user experience. You might have to try it over a large area to see the effect. In poetry it is the experience that counts.

You could also make the left/right margins stagger with the right justified section having a bigger left margin while the left justified would have a bigger right margin. This would have the effect of staggering even long lines or lines that overflowed one screen line.
