Wearing Glasses of Water
Combining the real with the imaginary, the logical with the intuitive, the mystical with the mythical, and both oral and written traditions, these evocative and complexly intriguing poems suggest a variety of modern issues. They bring together different geographical, temporal and cultural spaces to explore spiritual alienation and the nature of being, the power of language both to liberate and to oppress.

""Marques has a clear ability to turn a poem and make it her own." ?ARC "The essence of Marques's poetry is a peep into the compleximensions and psychological states of being, of creativeness and inventiveness with the Word, of themes and motifs of libidinal drives or instincts, of internal emotional conflicts where individual impulses and needs must be placed in ethical resolution with social or moral obligations." ?African Journal of New Poetry
