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.
