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.
