USA. A backyard. One man guarding a grill for four hours.

He never left it once.

Everyone else drifted and drank and laughed. But one man stood alone before the flames, turning meat with a long fork, immovable. I knew him at once. The keeper of the sacred fire.

I took my place beside him and said nothing. After a while, he spoke.

"Low and slow," he said, eyes on the coals. "You can't rush it. Rush it, you ruin it."

I bowed my head. A blade, a tea, a life. None can be rushed. I had crossed four thousand miles to hear my grandfather's words from a man in a "KISS THE COOK" apron.

"Everything worth doing is slow," I agreed.

He glanced at me. Something passed between us.

"My wife says just use the oven." He shook his head at the fire. "She doesn't get it."

"They never do," I said.

And this is where it turned.

For the first time in years, this man had been understood. And he rose to meet it. His back straightened. His voice dropped low. A teenager reached for the grill and the man lifted one hand without even looking. "Not yet." The boy retreated. He was becoming what I already believed him to be.

A woman asked when the food would be done. "It's ready when it's ready," he told the flames.

Three people approached. Three were turned away with a single word. By the fourth hour, no one questioned him. The whole party had arranged itself around the man and his fire, the way a village arranges itself around a shrine.

Then he handed me the fork.

"Watch it a sec. I gotta pee."

I have been trusted with castles.

I have never been more honored.

He served everyone before himself, and ate last, standing, still watching the coals. We never traded names. We did not need to.

He believed he had finally met a man who took his cooking seriously.

I believed I had finally met America's last samurai.

Neither of us will ever correct the other.

So tell me, America.

Who is the man at your gathering who will not leave the grill?

Have you ever once asked him why?

I think he is still standing there.

Guarding the fire.

Waiting for one person to understand.

@zweiwalker89607 Yeah I think that is the galaxy of the old republic games. That was one of the worst times to be alive. Balance in the force based on the movies is 0 sith, but it will never be permanent because all Jedi can fall

We all know who the real mastermind behind this is.

@Based_SpaceGoji I love that ship! I want to know what those turbines on the front of the ship are for! Does Anakin use those turbofans for more atmospheric thrust? I don’t imagine they are too useful in space but man do they look badass

@FloridaThales Awesome man! I need to get back into that. Used to write close to 10,000 words an every other day when I was actively writing my novels. I’ve really slacked off. Good to see someone enjoying building writing skill! 😊

In 10 years there won't even be shows anymore.

Streaming will be paying $50 a month to watch a black screen that on occasion will flash the words "Fuck you"
