"Find me cards equivalent to: Arrogant Poet"

Equivalent cards to Arrogant Poet (Black, similar attack-triggered flying/life-pay):
1. Dauthi Cutthroat — Whenever it attacks and isn't blocked, you may sacrifice it for a powerful effect.
2. Vault Skirge — Not an exact match, but has flying and costs life to cast (1B, with phyrexian mana).
3. Bloodcrazed Hoplite — Triggers on attacks, though with a different effect (not flying or life).

There are no exact black cards with pay life to grant flying on attack, but these are mechanically close, or share themes of life payment, evasion, and attack triggers.
