There are many professional poets blogging and online journals all of which link to each other - i.e. look up someone like Amy King and see her blogroll, and you'll find a ton of reputable poets working in various languages who are active online. You might ask "Who cares about poetry," but truth be told, there is a large community of academics in any field online (look up the blog Terra Nova if you don't believe me), and if you show that you recognize they're there, they should give your directory that much more weight.
