As far as I remember HL points to the start of the next string after a
call to D_ZM_STR, so the following should work

LD HL,My_Cursor_Pos
LD (CURSOR_X),HL
LD HL,Str1
ROM_CALL(D_ZM_STR)
ROM_CALL(D_ZM_STR)
.
.
.

Str1:
.db "Hello ",0
Str2:
.db "World",0

Try it out, if it does not work try inserting a INC HL before the last
call.
