Lord of the Flies
Chapter 5: Beast from Water
“Don’t hate, appreciate”
Perspective: Jack
Dear Diary,
How LUDICROUS is this island with us fighting now figuring out what to do next. Someone has to step up more and add more rules we only have three now. Which are, you can only have a fire on top of the mountain, only speak if the conch is held in a meeting, and no pooping in the huts. If I were Chief I would make this place in order, achieve things quicker, and make the littleuns mature. All the littleuns do is LAMENTATION during the night and can’t do anything but weep. I say hunting much more important than hunting I deserve respect around here who got food them, I did, who is going to keep them living to eat I will. All Ralph does is whine about the huts and how we need them. Now that Ralph is reasserting him self and getting, back on track, he is now going to be stricter and I want to get more respect I have to get Piggy out of the picture. I know it is mainly my fault that I didn’t take care of the fire how about the littleuns Ralph doesn’t command them as much. Now that Piggy has the brains I know he is going to impress Ralph by making a sundial that would help us. The meat would have had a DECORUM taste if the fire were there. All Piggy has been doing is RAMBLING nobody likes him here except his two little friends. In addition, I think we need to split up into two groups and separate from each other to work our ways. The bad thing about it is that who would want to go with who but we all the littleuns and biguns would want to come with me because I can feed them. Everybody likes me except Piggy little groups needs me so they won’t stand a chance they really need me to survive. The EFFIGY of Piggy explanation about his ideas are annoying I don’t know how we would work together. I have to start working for my own meat I don’t think anyone else deserves it, what Piggy did to help me hunt, what Simon did nothing at all to help me hunt. I hated the meeting today I couldn't take it I just had to split up and leave. Now its war I can't take it no more living by his dumb rules I need my rules and my ideas to help me live.
Why is an assembly called?
To get everyone together and get things back on track and to know whats going to start happening. Also new rules are brought up. We can't make fires only on mountains. No pooping near huts. But we need more consequences.
What concerns are brought up?
That the littleuns are pooping in the huts and that the fruit is rottening and that we arent working together.
How do you feel about those concerns?
I say I should be leader and not Ralph hes taking it easy on the Littleuns I'd get this place straight and going foward and make everyone mature.
How are things breaking up (falling apart)?
I say hunting is more important than building huts. If we can't work together we should split up we all know everyone will go with me. I serve food for everyone I can keep them living.
Why do you think the littluns cry in their sleep?
They cry because they are scared of the "beastie" which they shouldn't because they have to mature and be adults now.
What was Percival Wemys Madison afraid of?
The Beast from the water. That he knows where he thinks it comes from.
What do you think is “the dirtiest thing there is” about human nature?
Pooping on food and being all sloppy living and killing our enviroment. Also that were judgemental and were really selfish and self minded and work independently.
1. I hate Ralph he wants things his way he barely takes ideas. He didn't get mad at Piggy for what he did I say we need to split.
