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.
