Los poemas de Sasha Reiter son muy bienvenidos

Los poemas de Sasha Reiter son intersticiales

Se catalizan  entre la realidad

Y la interpretación de la misma

Pero debemos aprovechar que hay  realidad

Desde donde  cada uno de nosotros

A la larga

Poco a poco se vuelve

Puro inocente absuelto de toda culpa

Y todo castigo

No se tema perder nada aquí

Salvo  acaso las interpretaciones

Todo está para ganarse

 

Sasha Reiter’s poems are very welcome 

Sasha Reiter’s poems are interstitial 

They catalyze between reality 

And the interpretation of it 

But we must take advantage of the fact that there is reality in them

From where each of us 

In the long run 

Little by little becomes 

Purely innocent absolved of all guilt 

And all punishment 

Don’t be afraid to lose anything here 

Except perhaps the interpretations 

Everything is to be gained
