Climb: Micro-Progress

Depressed mood,
How to
Make it better?

Brushed my teeth,
Aimed attention there,
Depression back-grounded,

Directed myself
Not to get involved,
Kept with the action.

Black moods
Come and go,
Let them.

Stayed with
The activity,
Leaving the mood alone.

Let resistance be,
Felt it,
But hung in with the brushing.

Breathed in and out
And kept busy,
Focused on the task.

Held steady,
Let go,
And looked in the mirror,

Neither feeding,
Nor retreating,
Nor getting lost,

Very difficult job,
But it
Felt right.
