Ur dkten Bara ett steg från dem, övers. Gunnar Harding, i: Frank O'Hara: Till minne av mina känslor (Bra Lyrik, 1988); dikten ursprungligen från Lunch Poems (City Lights, 1964). För originaldikten, se: A Step Away From Them - A poem by Frank O'Hara - American Poems
"Reverdy's strange landscapes, which combine an intense inwardness with a proliferation of sensual data, bear in them the signs of a continual search for an impossible totality. Almost mystical in their effect, his poems are nevertheless anchored in the minutiae of the everyday world; in their quiet, at times monotone music, the poet seems to evaporate, to vanish into the haunted country he has created. The result is at once beautiful and disquieting as if Reverdy had emptied the space of the poem in order to let the reader inhabit it" Bloodaxe Books: Title Page > Pierre Reverdy: Selected PoemsArkiverad 27 maj 2011 hämtat från the Wayback Machine.
