What are these anagrams of:
A. A doubly-true anagram
This claims to be the longest doubly-true anagram ever constructed.
1 + 40 + 50 + 8 + 75 + 78 +
52 + 65 +102 + 24 + 26 + 27 +
6 + 13 + 44 + 14 + 70 + 72 +
11 + 34 + 58 + 25 + 76 + 92 +
28 + 59 + 68 + 23 + 81 + 94 =
7 + 30 + 45 + 2 + 18 + 93 +
4 + 35 + 71 + 5 + 20 + 90 +
41 + 57 + 80 + 9 + 83 + 89 +
47 + 55 + 60 + 12 + 54 + 62 +
21 + 63 + 97 + 46 + 51 + 69 = 1416
B. A Stately Anagram
This little poem celebrates the distinctly American musical genius Thelonius Monk. Can you guess what is an anagram of, given the clue that the title and text of the poem contain exactly 100 letters?
Viva United States of America
Monk? Hmm . . . jivin', man!
Honk, known champ - damn!
Calmly twirl, mystic vox,
And dancing skyward, waltz.
C: Finally,
Anagram:
"I am a portal to a sad place.
I am a cover to eternal fire.
Go, see our pit ooze craven memories.
Elite persistence moved some creator;
Divine omnipotence created me;
I am solo orgies of primal love.
Listen: ere me no denizens used our portal.
I quit not, and I last eternal.
FOREGO ALL HOPE, ALL MEN THAT ENTER."
Crazed and curious, in a daze I sat
To see man pour out over a portal;
So I said: "Master, I cannot see its import."
