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.
