The exit, paradoxically, is at the center. You will know you are near because the gravity loosens. Your footsteps make no sound. The walls begin to blush a shy pink, and the air fills with the scent of buttered toast. To escape, you must not run. You must not think. You must simply un-decide where you are going.
