A Bottomless Pit

I am a proud owner of a bottomless pit.

Well... it's not completely bottomless. It is finite. Yet, because the bottom recedes faster than I could possibly fill it, it is effectively bottomless. Small conciliation: I now know what lays at the bottom. Thus I know where anything thrown into the pit will go.

Still, disquieting is how easily and quietly the pit was constructed. There is no notice. It is a government project. Like an insane man, I'll whisper to you now... careful what you disclose.
