TUSCALOOSA, AL – After a solid hour of unsuccessfully dialing in a naturally processed coffee from Guji, Ethiopia, Brent Feelmore noticed something weird.
“I realized I wasn’t looking at light anymore. I was the light.”
Onlookers saw nothing of the internal chaos exploding within the barista’s synapses. They simply saw a man sipping coffee and scribbling on a piece of paper.
“He was doing what?” asked customer Sheila Flop. “Dialing it in? Like a phone number?”
Feelmore continued drinking more espresso but the effects went unnoticed.
“I no longer fear death,” he said when asked how the recipe was coming along. “I have seen the other side and I understand that we are but misplaced energy that becomes again misplaced when we pass over to the next phase of being.”
Coworkers only shook their heads when asked for comments. “It tasted fine like twenty changes ago. I’ve already taken out all the garbages and done the dishes. What has he done?”
Feelmore was last seen floating toward the bathroom and he’s been in there for, like, twenty minutes.
