Slippery Slopes

Broken and barbed, the calmness bestowed bumps,
Colossal springs emerged for the questioning of depth;
Arrogant princes slew their brethren offering pride,
Chilly as sea-monsters in cold waters, the brothers of evil
Remained like the infantile beauties.

Screeching chariots were ripe among the few,
Princedom repelled effectively damaging the youth
Of their fire, rough and selfish desire, the real rocks.
May arrogance and pride be built in one week,
As slippery slopes hide.
