The speaker tries to get rid of the roaches in "the beginning of the end of the world" by trying to drown them with water from the sink

Explanation:

"The beginning of the end of the world " by Lucille Clifton describes in the first stanza how the speaker tries to get read of the roaches as they are in the sink and coming out of the drain as the speaker supposes in their narrative, then is when they say that they let the water run in the intent of drowning the roaches.
