Spiral

Day 37 prompt: spiral

The text reads:

Fingertips like raisins.

Pull the plug – wait.

Twist and squeeze cloth til dripping stops.

Elbows still wet – plenty of time.

Squirt out the floating toys and perch them on the slippery porcelain.

Legs goose bumpy – getting close.

Focus below the faucet.

Don’t dare look away.

All action races past knees, ankles, toes.

Suddenly, the spinning spiral starts.

Swirls for several seconds

… then SLURP!

All at once, an hour’s entertainment

sucked into a tiny hole.
