More of What They Say
Marne Kilates brings clarity of image and lushness of metaphor to the fore with his powerful poetry in Time’s Enchantment and Other Reflections. The poems read not just as reflections in a mirror or the glassine surface of deep, calm water, but as transport into a world on the other side of the looking glass where the mundane turns fantastic, surreal, and breathtaking. May Kilates’ pen flow on and provide us with more reflections and enchantments.

Marne Kilates, in my opinion [is] the foremost and premier practitioner of literary (and other kinds of) translation in the Philippines—he who makes me (and hopefully others fortunate) follow his work)…

In his 4th poetry collection [Picures as Poems], Kilates teases our imagination with his longstanding dialogue with photographs and paintings, giving voice to a gamut of subjects and settings they enframe, allowing them to step out of the gallery frame and, perhaps, live yet another lyrical life through the interface of another medium…
In this age of the hypermedia, it is refreshing to find a well-thought poetry anthology that allows one to experience a timeworn art technique that is surprisingly multi-disciplinary: the picture poem where the poet becomes both a painter of words and a wordsmith of visions.

Kilates reminds us that language in poetry should be adroit and concise, yet paradoxically risk-driven and reckless as well.
Joel M. Toledo
For his poems that are deeply reflective and fiercely critical... pure as heartbeat and gentle as fervor...
