A chapter in the book The Saga of Procrastination
Constellation
by Iza Deleanu
My one and only, my only soul, don't leave me hanging there by the door. Wow, look at me, my alter ego. I am healed. I can write something... lyrical.
My alter ego; "You mean something hilarious because I don't get the context. Have you fallen off the bed? What's this euphoria? Have you found a resolution to your malfunctioning heart? Should I show you my resuscitating skills?"
"No need! I am okay today. I've seen the light!"
"You mean, the winter gave you the frozen "finger," and now you are hallucinating?"
"True, winter gave me the creepies. But this is not what life is about. I talked to my friend, and indeed, I got a resolution."
"Okay, let's hear it, 'cause I'm intrigued!"
"I need to make peace with my ancestors and those who hurt me in my past. This is the only way to break the spell."
"You mean speaking to the death? Literally?"
"No, I just need a candle and time. I will call on them, recognize their existence, and ask them to help me heal and cut all those complicated lines that keep me afloat. With the risk of drowning, I need to let go!"
"I will start counting. All this euphoria will keep you three days tops, and you will come to me with your tail between your legs."
"Hey, I don't have a tail. That will be Teddy!"
"That's okay, you can borrow it to prove me, right!"
"You are such a sour loser! Why can't you support me in this?"
"How can I? I am the voice of reason, and what you told me is absurd. Next time, you will talk to me about constellation."
"Actually, they are part of the healing process..."
"Get out of here. Call me when you are sober!"
