Anxiety is general
Moves are specific
To diffuse anxiety
Make one move
Small, defiant, a little bigger
No matter
Direct energy
In one direction
Then another
You don’t act in general
You pour a cup of coffee
Write a line
Take a shower
Anxiety will never call for specifics
She’ll vaguely ask « Take care of me »
In a million moves you can take
Choose one
Make it happen
Anxiety will sigh gently
