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.
