Lord of the Flies
Chapter 5: Beast in the Water
Perspective: Ralph

Dear diary,

Things aren't going the way I hoped they would. The whole groups splitting, which lead me to call an assembly. Everyone thought I was discursive the whole time I was talking. All of them were jeering me. The only people who sided with me were Piggy and Simon. Great I might be replaced as chief, but I'll try my hardest not to let that happen. It's just that people aren't doing what they're suppose to do, messing around.I had to establish new rules. And we have to set an example for the litteuns, lamentation at night from the beastie. I'm never like this, usually decorum. So ludicrous. Hopefully things get better, real soon.
