I think the intention is that reading 'M AS T' in poeM gives you poeT (ie author), the definition of the whole being 'upright'. I have to say that Azed does this sort of clue rather better, as 'poem' amd 'poet' are just two views of the same thing (compare Azed's classic 'My letters could make lad sad (4)').
Ah, of course, LISS, I remember her torment well!
