My poem “Were I a Tourist” has just been published by Wazee Journal, based in Denver: www.wazeejournal.org. This poem took six years, two poetry workshops, and several editors and listeners to complete. We –I mean humankind “we,” not poets “we” - cannot create anything in a vacuum! Poets have perpetuated the “poetry is a solitary art” myth for hundreds of years. In truth, even the most reclusive poets bring books by other poets, which is as solitary as bringing a private tutor or best friend along to boot camp. 
Basically, I need to meet writers in Athens. Can someone help a poet out?
