Pushed away: Kerosine
“I don't believe in any of it. I still won't walk under the ladder.”
It denies the sacred in public while keeping a small private version of it running anyway: the superstition held quietly, the private rule, the thing done for luck and explained away if anybody notices. The official position came from rejection arriving before memory, which made anything vast unsafe to acknowledge out loud, while the private version survives because the need it answers never went anywhere. What it asks for is to say one of the private things aloud and find out that it costs nothing.
It echoes Rachel, who left her father's house with the household gods hidden under her and sat on them, saying nothing while the tents were searched around her. The form implies a task: to get down off the saddlebag.
