Poetic Communication: Pastiche
I finally have salvation standing before me but I do not feel saved at all. Piggy was not right when he told me that Simon’s dead was an accident, it was a murder committed by everybody. But I do not blame them nor do I blame myself; it was the beast’s fault. I know the beast is responsible for everything that went wrong on this island; He is the one to be blamed. We did not wanted to act like this, we tried to keep things right. We tried to act like the grown-ups, in a civilized way and we tried to work together. I was their boss, the one in charge of guiding them and we had everything in order; everything was going well until that beastie creature came along. The beast took control over our bodies and minds and made us act in such a savage way that we ended up like this. I feel ashamed of us but it was not our fault. How could I have not seen what was going to happen? We should have hunted down that creature when we saw it on the mountain but we got so frightened. However, I know there is nothing we can do to kill this beast that now lives inside each one of us. It possesses an incredible and unpredictable evil power. It is not the creepy creature that once we saw on the mountain anymore; he has transformed into an invisible creature that cannot be seen but felt.
