"There's no trick in not going down the drain if you don't live in the sink.”
-Nelson Algren, Walk on the Wild Side
For the heads barely above water; For the non-conforming voices; For the water bugs, the resolute survivors withstanding the floods.
For the majority minority, the poor, the luckless, the angst ridden, the struggling, the coping, the getting by and the not, all trying to make the best of out the worst from all colors, creeds and futures that teeter on crumbling foundations that we stabilize and succeed despite the odds.
We are the ones who have been fighting the drain since we were born so adversity is to us.
In the Sink, our voices reverberate the cheap porcelain trench that may have kept us down but not out. In the Sink, our daily battle cries echo off these four walls in a defiant cacophony that refuses the drain. In the Sink - you are heard.
