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.
