In the temple of Sobek, on the banks of the Nile the initiate stands before entering the pool and being tested
Under water
Many passageways – continuously changing – all dangerous
In one, complete darkness
In another a blank wall
In another no end
In another the space narrows
In another the faint glimmer of light
Swim – the crocodiles are waiting
