In the Cave there is no sunlight. Everyone has lost sight,
wearing sunglasses over their atrophied eyes.
Plants abound in the Cave, nourished by vapors and black light.
The musicians of the Cave never read music. How could they?
All music is by feel. No one is watching. No inhibitions.
Everyone moves to the music, ensembles in unison.

The Cave is located on a Sethian node
three miles below the earth's crust,
underneath a cornfield in Dekalb, Illinois.
The rock walls ring to one unchanging pulse,
upon which all the Cave dwellers
build their spontaneous symphonies.

socrates posited that there would be no way of knowing if we were all trapped in a cave. plato claimed he could prove the existence of the cave by hotboxing it; if he got "totes hosed," the cave's presence would be known

Cave Science 101: Caves are BIG holes in the ground. We, as in we in academia, as in the college I TA at, actually know very little about how caves came to be or what lives inside them. In fact most of us are afraid to go in them. This is because they are dark and full of sharks.

You, not smart: "Maybe we're in a cave just watching a puppet show"

Me, very smart: "oh yeah? Then where is the concessions stand, huh?"

In negotiations there has to be give and take, and so far I have yet to see a single concession on the part of this cave wall

Everything you see in the man cave is false. To know reality you have to go upstairs and ask your wife whether you have any more beer

I am the shadow on the wall. I have been severed from my physical form. I see my empty shell trapped in the cave. Maybe I smoked too much weed?

Maybe the cave was inside us, all along.
