In this artwork is a man slowly falling into the depths of water. He dies as he defecates; his skin is cold and grey. Around him are upward-going bubbles which give a sense of hopelessness and dissection. The man is losing the heat of his body and the warmth of life. In such a lonesome state, it is obvious no one could ever survive. The rotagonist mumbles. His feces have a golden sheen, a splendid color. It symbolizes all discontent against society. Eventually the man hits the bottom, and his feces goes to nurture any creature that falls into this pool of foul water, such as the next falling man. Blind obedience is common in mankind. If anyone refuses to follow others, he or she shall not sustain.
