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.
