There are numerous LaTeX commands to manipulate lines.
Some have to do with line placement; others have to do with margins and breaking lines.

Breaking lines:

Use a double backslash to break a line in a specific place.

Example:

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves \\
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe; \\
All mimsy were the borogoves, \\
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Note that the above must be in the flushleft environment to prevent LaTeX from indenting the first line as if it were a paragraph
Modify the file break.tex to take out the backslashes, and preview it to see the result.
Then add back the backslashes, only this time add one to the last line as well.

Centering Lines:

To center lines, LaTeX has a center environment. In the following example, the lines between the \begin{center} and the \end{center} commands will be centered.

Alice felt that in that case she really {\em ought}
to listen to it, so she sat down, and said
``Thank you'' rather sadly.
\begin{center ``In winter, when the fields are white,
I sing this song for your delight --
\end{center}
only I don't sing it,'' he added, as an
explanation.

Notice in the formatted document that the poetic lines are centered, but they don't break to create two separate lines more like the input file text.
Use the file poem.tex as a skeleton to create a document which is like the one above, but with the line breaks done correctly.
