Abstract

The main purpose of this paper is to translate fifteen poems by the author Robert M. Drake into Spanish. These texts have never been translated into any language. All texts are independent from each other, but they all revolve around the same topics: love, towards others and towards ourselves, and how to turn the page when a situation is over. In addition to the translation, this paper contextualizes the author and his work, since Drake’s poetry belongs to the new 21st century movement of the so-called “instapoets”. Finally, the paper presents an analysis of the poems and its main difficulties of translation: the inexistence of the grammatical genre in English, the passive sentences, the structure of the poems and, specially, the metaphors.
