In this paper, it will be discussed the main theoretical contributions about home, articulated to an entrance in the poetry of Afro- Colombian writer Marta Quiñonez, and probing the manners of her place of belonging. For this purpose, it seeks to understand the metaphors of the body related to the house, the feeling of estrangement in the walled, hostile city in which she lives, the place of the writing. Although the term “house” is present in her poems – what can suddenly arouse its more concrete and physical contours that already inhabit our imaginary, like its solid walls –, the house can become a certain type of home, which is more aligned with the feeling of being connected to a space, that may or may not be material and still sustain its fluidity.
