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.
