Before the wonders
Of submarines and airplanes,
Fish and birds lived well

Throne of the Beast
“Lock and load.” Knight One’s command echoed through his helmet, drowning out the helo’s thumping engines. Knight Two sat across from him, his mechanical gloves thumbing the safety on his oversized auto shotgun clad in etched black metal. Knight Four scoffed silently, his face obscured by the jet-black helmet. An uncivilized weapon for an uncivilized man. There are already enough of those in this godless world. Two always seemed unsettling, like a big frothing dog in a constant internal struggle of, “Should I bite or hump my master?” It was no wonder Callsign General loved Two, even if Callsign Archbishop barely tolerated him. One was the Archbishop's girl.

Omgggg, that's soooo true! I wish one day, the birds and fish would take over the world and put us in our place, hahahaha
A truth that bare doesnt need a lot of words, does it.
Such a simple statement yet so true
Progress always comes with some sacrifice... But I guess humanity was okay as long as it wasn't their sacrifice. We only cared until when it became our problem (global warming etc.)
Well then, we're thinking deep today :) Inventions can seem so wondrous yet at what cost? Great piece.
Oh me likey! Well done, pal...so much truth in this!
