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.
