"Hearing them talk, the slick expatriots:
The essence of Greece, and all that jazz-
Lines from Seferis, Ghika's latest, what
Miller's Katsimbalis said last week.

Not one has walked in the real land,
Where any chance- met peasant's mouth
Can give you Greece to it's deepest core
And from the beginning to the end

Where are thou?
Where from?
Where to?
And for thy bread, what dost thou do?
"All you come to "write" or "paint"-
God help you if you smile at this
And find those questions merely quaint"
-John Fowles
