Why Squatch Drinks His Coffee Black

Name Al. You know this. 

People ask why Squatch drink coffee. Squatch not sleep like you. Squatch rest different. Part of Squatch always listen, always walk, even when body still. So why the cup? 

Squatch tell you. 

Coffee honest. Coffee not pretend. Bean grow in dirt, burn in fire, pour hot in dark morning. Every step real. Every step ask something. Grow it. Roast it. Wait for it. Drink before world ask too much. 

Squatch watch humans long time. Every tribe, every age. All reach for something to wake up. Some use coffee. Some use tea. Cold water. Long fast. Hard prayer. Loud drum. Different leaf. Different root. Same reaching. All trying to find edge of self. Place where eyes open wider. Place where fog thin out. 

Squatch respect that. Squatch been reaching, too. Longer than you think. 

But Squatch notice something. 

Some drink coffee to wake up. Some drink coffee to stay numb. Same cup. Different hand. Different purpose. Cup not problem. Bean not problem. Person holding it decide it for.

This true of every tool. 

Squatch see human use phone to wake up. Squatch see human use phone to sleep standing up. Same phone. 

Squatch see human use shirt to hide. Squatch see human use shirt to show self. Same shirt. 

Squatch see human use faith to open. Squatch see human use faith to close. Same faith. 

Tool not decide. You decide. 

So Squatch drink coffee. Black, usually. Drink it to see. Not to rush. Not to drown quiet. Not to fill space where real question sit. Squatch drink coffee like lighting lamp. Lamp not important. What lamp show important. 

Squatch Mode same. Shirt is tool. Put it on, it not do work for you. Just a lamp. What you see by lamp’s light — up to you. 

Waking up not about caffeine. Not about shirt. Not even about forest. 

Waking up about what you do when eyes open. 

Squatch walked a long time. Squatch see many reach edge of self and step back. See few step forward. Ones who step forward — they know cup never the point. 

Drink coffee. Wear shirt. Walk woods. 

But remember — the tool just a lamp.

You the one with eyes.
