The following information is about Visual Poetry.

Visual Poetry Defined

Poetry arranged in such a manner that its visual appearance has an elevated significance of its own, thus achieving an equivalence (or possibly even more) between the sight and sound of the poem.
Sidelight: While the term, visual poetry, is generally applied to the definition above, most poets consciously strive to influence the visual impact of their poems by their selection of line lengths, stanzaic structures, indentations, white space, punctuation, capitalization, and type styles. In traditional verse, though, these aspects are subordinate to the written text.
(See also Concrete Poetry, Pattern Poetry, Sight Rhyme)

This definition is in context to Poetry. See more contextual defintions for Visual Poetry.
