I glide down the stairs and I topple over a colossal cardboard box and assuming it has Richard written in illegible letters‚ I know my stepdad has taken residence in my

Maine: Pine Tree State In the night’s high tides I look out for boats that are out in the ocean with my oversized flashlight up on the highest point in the lighthouse. “Is anyone out there!?” I yell. I end up finding no response. All that I can hear is the waves crashing onto the rocks. But then for an inexplicable reason‚ everything feels slower‚ colder… It’s snowing! I think to myself.

The play Edward II reaches its emotional climax in scene i‚ Act V. It is in this scene that the king’s image as an irresponsible and weak person undergoes a total transformation‚ and he emerges before the audience as a tragic figure in his understanding of the worthlessness of a king stripped of power just like the King in King Lear.
