To compose or arrange in the form of an antistrophe; to create a response or reversal that mirrors an earlier structure.
From antistrophe + -ize suffix (creating verbs from nouns). This technical term allows poets and writers to describe the act of creating antistrophic structures.
To antistrophize means to deliberately create a mirror image of something—poets use this technique to create satisfying symmetry, like responding to a question with its opposite answer!
