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.
