Nightly Ritual Bed

The tall, split headboard rises just high enough to read against before the light goes off, two paneled sections meeting in the middle like they were built for two people settling in at slightly different times. Slim, tapered metal legs lift the frame off the floor, giving the whole piece a lightness that belies how substantial it feels once you're lying down.

This is the bed for the same routine, night after night. For the book that gets three pages before the eyes give out. For the version of a day that only really ends once you're here.
