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.
