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.
