When I write my posts, sometimes I have a need for a < center > tag. The closing tag < /center > never closes the command - everything after the initial center remains centered. Happens with Busy and steemit, so I try now to only center content toward the end. Not helpful in poetry posts.

Now, I may be missing something here, but I've been using those tags forever it seems. If I am missing some crucial understanding I'd appreciate being corrected!

The center tags seem to work when in raw HTML mode [here is a screenshot](https://steemitimages.com/DQmSLe8z3PppsFKxoUmzH8WhMnjVuU68z7HEHFhzSYfqkza/Create%20a%20post%20%E2%80%94%20Steemit.png).
You can try the more modern version below but this does not work for me in SteemIt's raw HTML editor.

```
<span style="text-align:center">
Stuff
</span>
```
If you want to center more than just a section of text it gets a bit more hairy if the center tags don't work.
