Steps

Take them up a bit Step down and disconnect yet Well oriented
Follow the rhythm Fall into run, then schism Palladium's glow
Hang on, two flights left Three ahead then go right Welcome home, goodnight
All this time, and the elevator still remains 'Out of Order.'

Good one..Got a chuckle and don't know if you intended it to be funny...Thanks for stopping by..I appreciate the little note about me leaving out a word in my work "Corrosion And Rust"...I wrestled with that line for I was trying to a count of 8,6,8,6..I tried all kinds of ways to make it work so I left it without the I or we....I figured the human mind would say I or we should be there..Thanks again..Sara

I did intend a chuckle :). Yes, on your poem I did surmise that you may have done it on purpose, but thought I would make sure. You are right though, the mind does generally interpret the word as being there. Thanks for stopping by.
