"Deep Thoughts…" (Jack's point of view)

a poem inspired from William Golding's book "Lord of the Flies"

"Deep Thoughts…" (Jack's point of view)

Stranded stranded on an island

Ever so wrong that it feels right to be here

Far from society…

Lost in one's insanity…

For once this place is paradise

Yet at the same time - a place of grief, sadness, and fear

The gathering started at the sound of a shell

But then everything soon becomes nothing more than living hell

After seeing all, my sense of fun returned…

Now I can live once again!

Yet my nemesis stands in my way

Gaining all the authority I could've had

But with the beast still out there

I was able to gain control

Little by little, I soon took all

Making them believe that my way was the right way

Thus, making my savage ways law over the island

But will we ever get off this island?

Who knows…

Maybe not ever, but I don't care

Just as long as I can have my fun

My rule strong under the sun

Soon though, everything comes to an end

We were rescued

On that island, on that little paradise of mine

We left behind two souls…

One I murdered with my own hands

The other of a man of which I couldn't stand,

eversince the first day we met on that island…
