Second one... It's ok to just quote, right? If it isn't, tell me and I'll remove it. This is set during the series, sort of about Knives trying a new, slightly confused, metaphor for humanity (spiders and butterflies is a little old) Ah, being overly dramatic - there's nothing like it.
Word count not including quote: 97
King Harvest
Corn in the fields.
Listen to the rice when the wind blows 'cross the water,
King Harvest has surely come.
Humanity had multiplied in His absence. After the bleak warning of July, they'd heeded nothing and turned on each other in fear, done nothing but breed and thought of nothing but revenge. With the help of His servants – and eventually His Brother – He would teach them to think of their proper place before they died. They'd know before the end what they were - filth and garbage. Nothing more than a diseased crop of weeds grown tall. A smile flitted across His face, and He started to move. Harvest time had come, and He was the reaper.
Note on the capitalisation: it's because I can see Knives thinking of himself like that. It's like how they write about God in the Bible – it's not 'he', it's 'He'. Knives does have an enormous ego.
I do not own The Band's 'King Harvest (has surely come)' which is actually a song about Unionism. I made it fit – yay for context! The Band were a 60's folk-rock group, and their cool songs include 'The Weight' and 'The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down.'
