Translation and Connecting

I am seeking a translator for my written pieces. They are poetic or lyrical prose, quite linguistically demanding.


I also seek some advise on connecting with other writers and writing group in France, as some of my work is about French towns, incidents an travel events. I come to France from Australia every 2years. It's a big journey, so I tend to stay a few months.


As an example of my work, here are a few lines:


Wandering down discouraged lanes, past curious monuments, seen-better-days,


standing with surly youth at Jean Paul Sartre Recreation Centre, thinking,


I might try out the weights of justice, press the barbells of freedom,


the balance bar of fraternity, and


spell ‘being’ and ‘nothingness’ in a friendly game of Scrabble.
