Meditations in a Rubber Room Carla Vendries

Meditations In A Rubber Room is about the difficulties of communicating through articulation alone, about solitude, growth and the heart felt pain and love embedded in childhood. These revealing confessions of passion, lust, justice, anger and forgiveness are the underlying subjects in the book. Here Carla Vendries whispers and yells about betrayal, a hope for universal love, empathy, knowledge and a divine era of innocence and kindness. Through these sensuous, toxic, hideously horrid, melancholic, melodic expressions she draws on myth, imagination, history to create poetry that will heal and arouse thoughts. Among her delicately crafted poems she offers insights to self-reflection, independence and truthfulness. Although her poetry is based primarily on fictional characters and vivid imagery they are also recollections, memoirs of actual events. Likewise, certain poems are highly influenced by the Bible as well as dreams, illusions, visions, and wishful thinking. There is a measure of balance in the overall content of the book. Poems ranging from tenderness and devotion to bitterness and death. There is an emphasis on love, God and all its manifestations. Through her commentaries and esoteric views on karma, spirituality, reincarnation, human behavior and creation many other subjects are reflected upon which would arrest your inner-core. Ultimately, Meditations in A Rubber Room is a quest for truth within her worlds hidden mysteries.
