Here's Pulitzer Prize winner Lloyd Schwartz and I discussing our poems about porn, both which have been anthologized. That's as close to having a "porn intake monitor" as I have. My own poem is wholesome enough to read to Unitarians at church, which I've done.

Mike...scares me.

that the people have the power
to redeem the work of fools
upon the meek the graces shower
it's decreed the people rule”

It's been 42 years since we first heard Hüsker Dü - Metal Circus EP, and the melodic hardcore murder ballad, “Diane.” The five songs on this SST release from 1983 have had a lasting impact on music well beyond the parameters of post-punk. RIP Grant Hart.
