In this article I am interested in exploring two poems by Roxana Miranda Rupailaf: Las tentaciones de Eva and Pu llimeñ ñi rulpázuamelkaken. Seducción de los venenos. The reading focuses on three problems with which her poetry dialogues and, in addition, on a fourth aspect that acts as a linking metaphor of the three previous themes. The first one reorients the story and intervenes one of the fundamental narrations of patriarchal domination and gender inequality: the biblical myth of the serpent of Eden. The second, gives another meaning to the Mapuche story of Tren Tren and Kai Kai, by infiltrating other ways of understanding and establishing duality in the present. The third, produces community, that is to say, its poetics return to the social fabric, damaged and invated by the hegemonic narratives, bringing up to date the possibilities of Mapuche community identification. Finally, the fourth aspect corresponds to the metaphorical place occupied by the eye, which rather than conforming itself as a visual attribute in the poems, is articulated by the possibility of freeing some of the secrecies of the gaze.
