Apologizing Is Actually Part of Violent Communication (Elle's review of my last Telling)
This tellings consists of Elle's one-line review of my previous telling (which was written and performed for her the week before).
Elle's review was delivered to her therapist Rob on Monday 7th of December, 2020 at 2pm GMT. She then shared the review with me so that I could incorporate it into my telling.

CARRYING A LADDER
We are always
really carrying
a ladder, but it’s
invisible. We
only know
something’s
the matter:
something precious
crashes; easy doors
prove impassable.
Or, in the body,
there’s too much
swing or off-
center gravity.
And, in the mind,
a drunken capacity,
access to out-of-range
apples. As though
one had a way to climb
out of the damage
and apology.
