Splitting Post Over Two Columns

Is there a way to have a post go to the bottom of a column and then continue at the top of the next column, like a newspaper or magazine? Say I have three DIV columns names right, middle and left. I want to put a photo in div=”left” and start the article in div=”middle” until it gets to the end of the column, say middle’s height: 300px; and then continue at the top of div=”right”…

I could write some complicated PHP to do this but I was wondering if anyone had already done the work for me? ??
