Táctica y Estrategia (Tactics and Strategy)
Mi táctica es mirarte,
aprender como sos
quererte como sos.

Mi táctica es hablarte
y escucharte
construir con palabras
un puente indestructible.

Mi táctica es
quedarme en tu recuerdo
no se cómo ni
con que pretexto
pero quedarme en vos.

Mi táctica es ser franco
y saber que sos franca
y que no nos vendamos simulacros
para que entre los dos
no haya telón ni abismos.

Mi estrategia es en cambio
más profunda y más simple
Mi estrategia es
que un día cualquiera
no se cómo ni
con qué pretexto
por fin me necesites.

 

Translation:
My tactics are to look at you 
To learn how you are
To like you how you are. 

My tactics are to talk to you
And listen to you
To construct with words 
An indestructible bridge. 

My tactics are 
To have left I in your memory 
I do not know how 
Or with what pretext 
But to have left I in you. 

My tactics are to be frank 
And to know that you are frank 
And that we are selling maneuvers to each other
So that between both of us
There is no drop curtain or abysses. 

My strategy is however 
Deeper and simpler 
My strategy is 
That one day
I do not know how 
Or with what pretext 
Finally you need me.

Miguel de Clerck
Professionally, my work at Medecins sans Frontiers (Doctors Without Borders) has always included the imperative to evaluate my jobs through the criteria of the mobilized, or the served population; the omnipresence of ethical dilemmas; and the often completely unfamiliar environment in which I work. It has opened my eyes to the mechanisms that lead to either major societal changes, or the absence of change.
