    The poem is an ode to Piggy from Lord of the Flies, expressing regret over his death and how things might have turned out differently if the group had listened more to Piggy's wisdom. It describes how Piggy was underappreciated but an "angel" trying to help, and his death by a falling boulder, leaving the speaker wishing it was himself instead and vowing to avenge Piggy.

    An Ode to Piggy

    ABABCDCDEFEF

    To my dear friend Piggy

    Some think you’re a nuisance

    Some think you dying is no biggie

    To some you made sense

    If only we listened to your wise thoughts

    Your knowledgeable and trustworthy word

    Our once strong hope might have not been left in knots

    The split that plagued our group may have not even occurred
    Out from the pink layered rock

    They emerged ungracefully like a bloodthirsty beast

    Their slow and devious walk

    Hoping to feast

    You were the angel to the devil on my shoulder

    Underappreciated and unnoticed

    Your life ended by a boulder

    if only we focused

    If only I were a better chief

    You don’t deserve to be dead

    As I lay distraught and in disbelief

    I wish it was me instead

    I stare into the ocean filled with rage

    Thoughts of revenge fill my mind

    If only we didn’t engage

    Don’t worry Piggy vengeance is what I will find
