cave  
  geometry  
                  
                            
        the name is a little mis-       
   giving, because of course there is   
 no real  geometry in  the caves. you may 
 feel  as if  you are venturing into some 
 vast structure,  but  you  are  in  fact 
 leaving any  such thing at the entrance. 
                                          
     leaving physical tethers behind,     
  submitting to an inescapable darkness,  
 the  world around you becomes more of  a 
 manifestation  of   your   mind,   or  a 
 collective mind,  with  a  shape  and  a 
          direction and a taste.          
                                          
   inescapeable darkness, because if you  
 bring  a  candle   or  mount  electrical 
 lights,   the  walls   only  serves   as 
 markers   to  where   the  tiny  spatial 
 existence ends and the darkness  beneath 
                it begins.                
                                          
 like an inverted  mandelbrot,  the  real 
 cave is actually  not the  pockets,  but 
 the  black  around them.  keep  that  in 
                   mind.                  
                                          
                      
                                          
 the  moisture  that  permeates any  cave 
 worth  it's name...  it's the water  the 
 world rose  from.  it's  the  water  you 
        drown in, in your dreams.         
                                          
 the  only sounds in  the cave  are those 
 that  you make yourselves.  they may  be 
 distorted  by  the  stone structure, and 
 amplified by your  mind.  try not  to be 
 alarmed,  try to  remember  the  persons 
 and objects  around  you,  and  you  can 
 discern   a   mirage  from   a   friend.
