Lord of the Flies Found Poem

Orphan



Full Text

Orphan
Go away…
We don’t want you…
You’re no good…
You can’t come…

What are we?
Humans?  Or animals? Or Savages?
Alone, without any grownups
We suffer untold terrors in the dark
Silent except for the sounds of Nightmare
Huddling together for comfort
Littluns crying for their mothers

We’ll never be rescued
We’ll be like animals
Frightened of people

We’ll live on our own
In the darkest hole
Eating and playing
Like a crowd of kids
