My Name Is John Merick

Today I was taken back to France by Mr. Bites. He took my back to be in his little show again, at least that is what I assume. When he took me I was very frightened, I thought he would abuse me as soon as he could get his hands on me. I hate being in this freak show, I hate all of this negative attention I get and how people are frighten when they take a look at me. I am not an elephant, I am not an animal, I am a human being. But I guess to Bites, I will always be an animal. Which his why he probably put me in that monkey cage when he was drunk. I was so frightened and humiliated when I was put in there. I felt so lonley and helpless, all I thought about was going back to The London so Dr. Treves can accompany me and keep me safe. I hate Bites because he treats me like an animal. I don't know what I would have done if the other people in the freak show wouldn't have let me out of that cage. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't be where I am today, on my way back to The London so I can go back to Dr. Treves.
