He sat unmoving; thinking.

His mind was not floating,
but sinking.

All through the day,
he sat in this way, only thing changing, his blinking.

I looooove limericks but somehow I can never manage to write them.  But you did a great job.  I feel like this all the time.  The last line is hilarious :D
