Beep Bap In The Basin

Bop! My shoes splashed right into the shallow puddle at the bottom of the steel basin. Cold water! I squeezed my microphone, felt my fingers actually grip the plastic mesh, and blurted out a sharp 'Beep!' The sound bounced loudly off the metal walls. Right next to my feet floated a damp yellow kitchen sponge. I leaned over, gave it a firm poke with my mic, and watched ripples glide across the water toward the drain.
