I think #12 is GM.

So do I. But I am now mystified about #1. Maybe Tzara?

It ain't mine.

I'm leaning towards todski69 or Harry.

I think you protest too much. I'm with AH, and willing to eat a whole lot of crow.

You had me flustered

Initially I read crow as something else

Mer's guesses for 1 - 15

ummmm let's see:

#1 Pluperfect - definitely erotic - and as I mentioned before, I still believe it's by Mags, who makes a point of muddying the waters where his authorship is concerned. Very lovely, sweet poem.

#2 - Ash - porn and humor, humor and porn

#3 - AH - erotic; despite it not being a sonnet, it's got some telltale AH marks.

#4 - Conjunction - definitely erotic - probably butters or Harry? can't tell which one; someone else probably can. Or maybe Calli?

#5 - of course Ash; I would guess it was written with the idea that it would erotic; it starts out that way, but then... for me, the spanking makes it something else, not porn exactly, but not erotic either. And that simply is my opinion, heavily influenced by my tastes. (Duh.)

#6 - another AH - again erotic, no porn in sight.

#7 - The Stevedore's Wife - - erotic, probably written by gm

#8 - The Object of My Desire - a cross between erotic and porn? a cross between Calli or GP and Tods? no clue

#9 - butters? Calli? possibly Trix? - erotic for sure, sli i i i i ding towards porn

#10 - Plumperfection - Magnetron - erotic humor or humorous eroticism; I love it, and it's not cause it's of the tanned bottom

#11 - Curse of the Pharaos - Magnetron - this one would be porn if it weren't so fricking humorous

#12 - Tony's Vintage... - gm would make sense but I personally have no clue; yes, porn; love Popeye's piccolo

#13 - Lost in Sin (or sumthin) - sort of in between erotic and porn, this one done lost its rhythm; it tries to rhyme, but does it succeed??

#14 - Superpluperfectified - another Mags special, methinks - porn with a dollop of humor - (had to write it out to see if I could; say this one 10 times fast; come on, I dare you!)

#15 - Fuck Me - no bloody clue who wrote it; or maybe Harry, or even Annie as an exercise in writing porn?

Even though it's written in the perspective of suggesting the feminine in porn, I think #13 belongs to AH.

17 I'm calling Tod's, it's erotic and nicely done in my book.

18 I'm calling Annie's and to me it's porn. Nice double acrostic!

I'm not quite above a certain age, but I love that.

I'm starting to suspect that half of them are from the many minds of Magnetron.

I think it's Annie's, but I don't think it's porn. The only really porny one thus far is #15, which appears to be rather a parody of porn. Are there any mediums (media?) among us? We need to summon the ghost of Justice Stewart.

Yes, anything where the prefix "plu" appears. Calli, you may know what prompted this pluternatural outburst; others may not. It involves a certain Brand X poetry website.

Speak for yourself, Lorna. I'm married to the hottest senior citizen body in all of Northern New England.

(Oh, Great! Now I have to write an erotic poem about that.)

Yes, I know the origin of the plurality of plu-poems.

19 and 20 strike call Tzara to mind. Oh and 19-porn/20-erotic

Any chance of a list of participants? I'm hopeless at this at the best of times.

UYS, you must be quite the night owl.

I think it's best to wait until everyone's submitted to list participants. Makes it too easy if it gets updated as we go.

An astute observation. The poems seem to be, um, coming relentlessly.

I'm just holding my guesses until I see who's playing. I'm not good at that part either.
