Defenseless

“Defenseless”
 
Fingernails,
Across a chalk-board.
Defenseless,
A broken sword.
 
A shattered mirror,
Casts splintered reflections.
A virus spreads,
Needless infections.
 
A harrowing sound,
Carried without source.
An angry demon hungers,
Without remorse.
 
The banshee’s cry,
Falls on deaf ears.
Despair itself hunts,
But no one is here.
