Haiku Horizons prompt: sink
That Sinking Feeling.
Life is a rough sea.
Battered from every side
We sink. Or we swim.
◊
Facades crack open.
What we see is frightening;
It makes our hearts sink.
◊
Dishes fill the sink.
Flotsam of a night well spent.
It is a cheap price.

Sometimes I feel like the flotsam (and the jetson) of life... Not sinking, not swimming but floating.
