Here you go, Rogerbob. The tags [ L][/ L] (without the spaces) insert the equivalent of about three horizontal spacebars, and the tags [ S][/ S] (without the spaces) insert the equivalent of one. I've used multiples of [ L][/ L] tags to do this. I've put two sets before the bottom line--if you intend the poem to start flush against the left margin, I can remove two sets, all the way up.

STARTING FROM THE BOTTOM

                                                  the sky
                                             against
                                        your head
                                   not to bump
                              please be careful
                         go racing by,
                    and clouds
               and watching birds
          When falling up
