#Faucet

A faucet is the mechanical dictator that forces the flow of water to obey human whims. It creates the illusion of endless clean water while in reality commanding ambivalent floods or drips by a mere twist. It is touched and taken for granted, only to be blamed as soon as a single drop goes awry. In a blackout or drought, it is reduced to a useless artifact that throws the household into disarray. Holding the source of life at its mercy, it occasionally dispenses merciful austerity under the guise of water-saving.
