Porter Anderson.
This
workshop, organized by Zoe
Artemis, brought together aspiring writers from the USA and Europe.
With erotic-writing workshop pioneer Mitzi Szereto guiding them, all learned
how to pull back the blanket on the field of erotic writing and to seek inspiration
by incorporating elements from their own surroundings.
Workshop
participent, Maggi brings her inspiration to point beautifully in her poem

I
am realising now that my view of erotic
Is somewhat obscure an uncomfortable
topic
So on leaving the session with homework abound
I walked down
the stairs and then about turned
A man dressed in blue with a case in
his arm
His eyes twinkled green – he’s no stranger to charm
I made some excuse about leaving my sun cream
I ran back up the stairs
my senses all keen
But the man in blue was nowhere
to be seen
As I stood there panicking which way do I go?
I heard
Miles Davis in the distance, the sound to follow
At the top of the stairs
playing out to the night
Stood the man in blue, brass instrument held tight
His lips red with exertion, his eyes tightly closed
The silhouette of his
body bent backwards exposed
Unaware of his audience he plays free to the
wind
But me, as I watch him, I feel I have sinned.
Although
Skiathos 2006 is now but a memory, reservations are now being accepted for the
2007 (July 6-July 13) Greece Writing Retreat Workshop "Imagination
Based Poetry" led by Poet Laureate,
George Wallace. Click
