Like love poetry of which one tore up a nice piece? (6)
I believe the answer is:
erotic
'like love poetry of' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'one tore up a nice piece?' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'up' indicates anagramming the letters.
'a nice piece?' becomes 'c' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'i'+'tore'='itore'
'itore' with letters rearranged gives 'eroti'.
'eroti'+'c'='EROTIC'
'which' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for erotic that I've seen before include "Tending to arouse" , "Titillating" , "Designed to arouse sexual desire" , "Relating to sexual desire" , "Conducive to arousing sexual desire" .)
