A Warrior's Chant

Wrapping letters around
  the conflict

A war played out
  with words

The fury of shouted
  diction

Slaying enemies still
  unheard

Shooting vision
  into the onslaught

Attacking silence
  as legion’s advance

Loading insight into
  the canons

Killing emptiness
  —with a warrior’s chant
