Anagrammatic poetry
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.<ref>"Tea with Kevin McFadden. An Interview by F. David Mencken". Archipelago. Volume 6, number 2. http://www.archipelago.org/vol6-2/recommend.htm</ref>
Writing anagrammatic poetry is a form of a constrained writing similar to writing pangrams or long alliterations.
