COLLAPSE
 
He felt shaky when he set out that morning. Never one to be insecure, strode with confidence, slammed the door, and it fell off its hinges. It was a fine day but before he reached the bus stop, the rain started, he slipped on the step and fell off the bus which drove off and left him in the gutter.   Arriving eventually at work, he was called to the office; “You’re sacked!” Stumbling down the stairs he was violently sick; quite ruined his suit. Life falling apart around him, he reached home.  Burgled! State of collapse, into armchair- gave up.
