Edgar & DrucilaA Story by Abishai100A war-riddled dominion-traveler seeks 'discovery' in negotiated emotions with a lovely-lady and may not have the 'time-space' to write his own (Selfie) dungeon.
A 'classic' Romance of incomplete-distances readings for acquired possessions/dodecahedrons, adapted from the excellent themes/concepts from Somewhere in Time (Christopher Reeve).
---- ==== EDGAR: Still don't believe I'm a Catholic man from a future-world, Drucila. DRUCILA: A time-traveling watch-man with claims of bound-Romanticism. EDGAR: I tell you in-truth this is legitimate consciousness of the self. DRUCILA: Yet you claim you're a war-scarred writer with depression. EDGAR: I'm torn, for I thought to find someone for studies and not love! DRUCILA: This reads like some possession/persuasion tale for Earthling. EDGAR: I can't help but feel this is my future-world fear of self-containment. DRUCILA: When you find the time/space to awaken, you'll find me (again). EDGAR: No, I maybe am wrong and feeling you're the one for this Selfie. EDGAR: You're the aristocrat-lady of this more archaic Earth, lovely Drucila. DRUCILA: You're claim-messenger of some future-world war-soldier of oil. EDGAR: I didn't think to find a time-device in Egypt or you for self-studies. DRUCILA: Why me, Edgar...and why must I endure a patience-test for you? EDGAR: I think I'm torn and want you to think I'm torn, between war-and-time. DRUCILA: I find you strangely-dressed, but smart; wits but self-worries, truth. EDGAR: I won't let this become a Selfie-curse, for me or for a memory of you. DRUCILA: 'Facebook' like, Edgar? DRUCILA: Perchance I share your Catholic-faith and 'time-less' angst, Edgar! EDGAR: You like my diner-table bread (Indian) recipe only. DRUCILA: I reciprocate what I find for language-arts expressions in charm. EDGAR: I'm still negotiating the distances of self-hesitancy; war-scars, Drucila. DRUCILA: I can heal those. EDGAR: Not in time, I say to myself, and I risk losing this 'chance' haunting. DRUCILA: Keep me, or what you may keep of me (for yourself); let you heal. EDGAR: You're already healing me, like the dowry of this (Indian) bread. DRUCILA: Maybe I can wait...for you. EDGAR: I hope you don't have to do just that...for bread (maybe). PSYCHIATRIST: Back from war and hell and back to teaching (Dartmouth). EDGAR: I was on a time-journey, and I met Drucila (a vision). PSYCHIATRIST: This 'claim' you zoomed through an Egypt-portal to Drucila? EDGAR: I told her I was scarred from war and simply negotiated charm. PSYCHIATRIST: You insist you were seeking to find arms-restorations with her! EDGAR: I know she didn't think I lost her to time and toys, doc. PSYCHIATRIST: You equally claim she 'thinks' you'll return (somehow). EDGAR: Somewhere in time; and away from my world-of-toys, doc. PSYCHIATRIST: Facebook-like (good). EDGAR: Thanx, doc.
