The testcase page I linked shows that this happens without ProofreadPage's
javascript effects. What you can and can't do by avoiding using <poem> is a
mixed bag. There's a few tests on the linked test page, feel free to mess
around with these.

While I would like to emphasize the apparent issues of <poem> breaking
<noinclude>, if it's as simple as "fix issue by not using tag at all," then
please mark this bug as "won't fix." (Sorry if I come off as rude, just trying
to be brief!)
