Estos poemas son acerca de la gente que vivió a través de este tiempo; sus testimonios escritos ahora tradición. El fracaso de defender a Perú en contra de las fuerzas renovadas de Europa fue la fatalidad sobre Perú. Este período en el pasado cercano ha sido de poco interés para muchos, pero ahora es visto como historia formativa para Perú, rica y apasionante para el lector. Ricardo Palma fue en parte mi inspiración para esta parte del libro. Déjeme también añadir, éste fue el tiempo del Imperio de los Incas, que mantuvieron su supremacía hasta este final. Pizarro I(Conquistador español (1525)) El ciego sigue al ciegoEl mudo siguen al idiota Pero el inteligente, como "Pizarro", (quien no podía leer o escribir) siguió a la naturaleza-humana... ¡Y gobernó al Mundo Inca! Así, Atahualpa fue Decapitado fuera de orgullo e Indolencia-: uno podría decir, Y la ignorancia gobernó... Nota: Don Francisco Pizarro #689 27 de mayo del 2005 Cepeda el Astuto II[Lima, Perú-1546 Después de Cristo] Cepeda el Astuto-, juzgó Con dos lados; uno falso, Otro orgullo?ambos mezclados con mentiras. #694 30 de mayo del 2005 Antonio de Robles III[Cuzco, Perú-1547 Después de Cristo] ¡Él era un '?despiadado desgraciado'! Un hombre que no se doblegaríaNo amigo de hombres ? Él encontró su destino profético En derrota, sobre las calles ¡Balanceándose de un árbol de Cuzco! #695 Mayo 2005 General Quizquiz IV[Cuzco - 1533 Después de Cristo] El más valiente de todos ellos-Fue el General Quizquiz General Inca del Perú Quien acosó a los conquistadores españoles-De arriba a abajo ? En Cuzco, él luchó cada día A sus enemigos inmortales; yCon una tormenta, Quizquiz En concierto, descuartizó vivo, Los conquistadores- Mientras el tiempo pasaba. Nota: #692 31 de mayo del 2005 Poet/Author, Dennis Siluk, is very much aware of the Traditions of the Peruvian past, and expresses this in his four simple poems dealing with the Spanish Conquest of Peru.
