Hey, Julie,
This sounds like fun, although I'm confused about one thing. You indicated the ekphrastic should be about a single work of ART, right? Soooooooo...how does Hillary's book figure into that? Or did you mean to say, a single work of fiction?
Seriously, I'll try and come up with something soon...hmmmm...let's see...Oh!

I knew a girl from Arkansas
Whose husband liked to roam and stray.
Each time it was, “The very last straw!”
Then changed her hair and mind in May.
Okay, okay, whatdaya’ expect for 10 minute posey, Peegy Noonan?
Regarding the indenting. I know of just two ways to accomplish it, (perhaps there are more?) one is the, BANNED POST & n b s p ;
just make sure the semi-colon appears only once per indentation, e.g., just before the first letter of the word/line you're indenting, thusly:
& n b s p & n b s pBANNED POST;(begin indent here).
I've spaced the letters here so they don't disappear into the html code when you read this.
Or, if you don't mind the font changing, you can create your text in Word and then put the word "code" in brackets ,(no quotes) in front of the first letter of the text and then, "/code" in brackets after the last word. USUALLY that works fairly well, like so:
