Cliff Essays

Anyone with an umbrella would have been whisked off the ledge; Mary Poppins style. I was in a melee with the typhoon as I unsuccessfully tried to make my way to the edge.

Although the raindrops bit at my defenseless skin like hundreds of arctic beestings, I had never felt more alive

I wanted to jump so badly, but my fear of heights was holding me back. This fear was like an invisible wall placed at the cliff's edge. Down below me, my cousin and aunt had already taken the plunge into the dark water below. It was so deep.

Cathryn and Cliff had been dating for about five years. The last few years he had even come to our annual family beach week. He was a welcome addition to the family vacation, not just because of the fun personality and my boys having another "brother", but because we had someone to take the picture that we use every year for our Holiday cards. But I digress.... It was early afternoon when I got a call on the Lobby phone; someone was asking to see me. I'm sure now that he said, “It’s Cliff" and I missed

You turn realizing you were facing the wall and see many shadows lining along the edges of the room. From the shadows emerge several beings. Limp and pale, almost to the point of being translucent. The beings slowly begin to move forward. You find that these beings live off of the light of a lone candle lit in the center of the room resting upon a small wooden table
