This is a list of anarchists poets, examples of their published work, and the source material in which their poetry is found.

An anarchist is a person who rejects any form of compulsory government (cf. "state") and supports its elimination. Anarchism can be summarised as the belief that all forms of rulership are undesirable and should be abolished.

This list is biased in favor of poets who have self-identified as anarchists. Poets who are popularly considered "anarchic", but have not specifically self-identified as anarchists, are not included.
