Andres Reynaldo believes that Milanes is the movement of the New Trova. Although Reynaldo does not really understand Milanes thoughts, but has a very distinct opinion on the dictatorship. Milanes provides the answers in his songs but is difficult because there is often two. I believe the poems are referring to Che Guevara because he is a symbol of power and leadership. He was and still is a symbol of rebellion for people. Che was a guerrilla fighter but also a writer. He does not necessarily need a gun because he has his words. The words of the poem say that life is not worth it if at the end of the day we cannot change. There is a lot of negativity in this world full of murder, crime, and not good people. There really is no reason to live if at the end of the day there is no good. Puerto Rico and Cuba are good for each other, they are far but walk hand in hand. They can work together and make things happen. The poetic voice of the poem is a protective friend or sibling like feeling. The theme of pecado original is love and secrecy. The original sin is for the two men to be together although they do not think it is a sin.
