La poes?a de Yrene Santos se inscribe dentro de la tradici?n humana arraigada en el "malestar femenino" hist?rico, latinoamericano y personal. Su l?rica plasma un testimonio resistente a una exacerbada carga de una angustia, amargura y "Desolaci?n" del eco de la voz vibrante de la figura femenina de madre y/o amante. En este espacio no faltan la sensibilidad, la esperanza y el optimismo Limpio mi c?rculo para seguir adelante, anhelando una ruta borrosa de la justicia humana que suena m?s bien por su ausencia. En su poemario Despu?s de la lluvia, El Yo po?tico se asoma incrustado en un flujo narrativo donde se alterna la l?rica con la narraci?n elaborando una trenza semi-autobiogr?fica de ficci?n. Sus versos repercuten una ola de dolor suspicaz en el cual el agotamiento y la serenidad se abrazan en el flujo de una m?sica interior, capaz de evocar en nuestras almas la melod?a m?stica de la eterna Scheherazade.

The poetry of Yrene Santos is part of the human tradition rooted in historical, Latin-American and personal "female discomfort." Her lyric expresses a testimony resistant to an exacerbated burden of anguish, bitterness and "Desolation" of the echo of the vibrant voice of the female figures of mother and / or lover. In this space, there is no lack of sensitivity, hope or optimism. I clean my circle to move forward, longing for a blurred route of human justice that sounds rather because of its absence.

In her work, After the Rain, the poetic "I" appears embedded in a narrative flow where the lyric alternates with the narration, creating a semi-autobiographical braid of fiction. Her verses impact a wave of suspicious pain in which exhaustion and serenity embrace in the flow of an inner tune, capable of evoking in our souls the mystical melody of the eternal Scheherazade.
