10/27/10 Coffee

Okay, maybe I've posted about this before. But it's thick and dark. I imagine it gooey and string-y sometimes. Bitter (why don't people like other bitter things?) (what if bitter were the taste we humans sought, instead of sweet or salty or sour?). But black and opaque, a mystery. Chewy, substantial on the tongue, a mouthful, but it doesn't fill you up, because you get the espresso and don't add much to it, so there are no calories. And it makes you thirsty, because you always get thirsty around mysteries, so you drink more water. And you wonder about the darkness.
