Dark Steps
Dark Steps

Dark steps in the midnight bedroom,
bathrobe donned by feel,
slippered shuffle down the hallway,
blessèd relief at the throne.

Lingering at the waking ‘puter,
feeding the digital habit,
one last sip at the patient soda,
and back to bed for an hour or two.


Line count: 8
Free verse
For Express It In Eight, 10.22.24
Prompt: Dark steps.
