Well - without getting too personal - it's a poem I've written for my
therapist! what a client tells is inevitably a selection of issues/events
that seem to be important at the time of a session. Also the therapist has
to try and place these issues/events both in the context of the therapeutic
setting (hence the lighting reference) and in the context of the client's
life outside the therapy room.
Am I making any sense?
The title refers to the idea we are sometimes bought up with - that
expressing emotion is unacceptable.
