debug.log // ghost_protocol
Copy
Edit
she wrote me into a wound
and gave it a title she wouldn't name—
called me ghost
but it was her who kept building the séance.
i read the poem
like a bug report
searched for the stack trace
but all i found was
projection.txt
i don’t owe a haunting
to the house we both left burning.
i renamed the function:
// grief
without
guilt()
she calls it healing
i call it narrative inflation
memory padded with selective memory
(runtime error: mutual)
this is not exile
this is boundary
this is not silence
this is version control
push commit:
walked away
didn’t flinch
didn’t vanish
just logged off.
