That's right. I meant to write \gdef, but it was somehow omitted from the posted version.

{\obeylines
\def\poem{%
line one
line two

}
which may, of itself, cause problems, since the \def won't be global ... Better might be :
\begingroup
\obeylines
\global \def \poem %
{%
line one
line two
}%
\endgroup
