Does \usepackage{verse} have to be called in the preamble?

Hi,
(I post with trepidation; having searched the wiki -- I promise.)
I am setting poems with this kind of approach (using memoir class.)
-----------------------
\poemtitle{Blah}
\settowidth{\versewidth}{xxx xxx xxx xxx xxx xxx }
\begin{verse}[\versewidth] Line 1 \\
Line 2 \\
Line 3 \\
\hspace{2.5em}Line 4 \end{verse}
----------------------
What's happening is that "Blah" (the title) is being orphaned on the
page and I want it to (automatically) break to the next page.
I have this in the preamble:
------------------------------
\newcommand{\extratablespace}[1]{\noalign{\vskip#1}}
\flushbottom
\newcommand{\myrule}{\rule{5cm}{.1pt}}
\raggedbottom
\widowpenalty=10000
\clubpenalty=10000
---------------------------------
Which (I think) is the big-stick approach to the problem, but it's not working.
Any ideas?
