I’ve done shape poems… but from my files to WP they do not translate (copy and paste) well.
I know one can fart with adding blank line space(s), and there might be other ways to add a shape poem to WP. But it’s just well rather fishy for me so I’ll pass.
I am not actually able to format them either lol
I can do them in my documents, but I can’t transfer them. I don’t know how to copy and paste the ‘image’ of the words. Though I’ve seen other folks do that. WP needs to get on the ball for poets 😉
It does yes I find it challenging to format on WP
I still work out of the ‘old’ dashboard. I refuse to use the ‘New’ and supposedly ‘improved’ block editor which I have heard others say is not good at all for poets.
I have always disliked the extra line space WP attempts to put between the lines. Very irritating.
I switch to it sometimes myself if I need to do certain things. Formatting is a real struggle haha
I just copy and paste the words in the html (not visual) to not get the extra line spaces. But images don’t transfer so I have to keep the prompt image open (or other net image) and then copy and paste it into the visual doc at WP.
It was rather difficult in wordpress so i had to do a really simple shape!

My contribution is a “sorta” shape-ly po.em. My computer skills and computer programs limit what sorts of text manipulation I can do.
Fun prompt!
