           ash, but  there's no flame. you hold  it

              becoming flat and adjacent. pressed             
           into each other.  creases  are flattened      ,    
           out,  distances disappear, the  world is           
     ¨     mangled  down  to  two  dimensions.  and           
           suddenly  light  falls  on  the  edge of           
           everything rather  than the surface:  it           
                  all goes completely dark.
