Parody 2

I have eaten| I haven’t found you,

the plums| in the house,

that were in| or in the rubble of what was our house.

the icebox| where are you?

and which| you could be dead,

you were probably| or captured by the natives.

saving| hoping,

for breakfast| for me to come help.

Forgive me| you can trust me,

they were delicious| I will find you,

so sweet| and bring you,

and so cold| to a new home, maybe.

This parody is related to the novel because  it is Samuel writing to his parent after

they've been captured by the Native Americans/British Army. The speaker is Samuel 

himself,he's writing about how he wants to find his family and liberate them then bring 

them into a new, safe home. I would assume the audience is himself considering 

he is writing in a journal rather than writing a letter. I think the tone is 

hopeful and the mood is worried.
