Anagrammatic poem

Scan of the poem "Anagram" from the 1633 edition of George Herbert's The Temple

Anagrammatic poetry is poetry with the constrained form that either each line or each verse is an anagram of all other lines or verses in the poem.

A poet that specializes in anagrams is an anagrammarian.[1]

Writing anagrammatic poetry is a form of a constrained writing similar to writing pangrams or long alliterations.
