“similar to a mass on a rubber mat attracting smaller masses that circle it”
The thing is, a depression on a rubber mat only causes that attraction because gravity already exists and is pulling the masses down. We can’t even imagine an example of how gravity works that doesn’t depend on a pre-existing notion of gravity!

Once again, xkcd for the win! :
