Captain Toll, The Pirate King: 1: The Key (Poem, excerpt)

Snow fell sideways,

Shimmering across the purple days, 

Collidings into the sea of flames,

Containing abyssal stars and their void-ful stains.

Soaring across these stains are ships of steel,

With pirates ready to steal.

Armed with muskets and vigor,

With their fingers on the trigger.

Under the rule of Captain Toll,

Ships cast sunlight upon the Capitol.

With the spread of sunny doom,

Met with cannons screeching, “Boom”

Skyscrapers of glass crashed upon its citizens,

As those pirates rub their bearded chins,

Looking out into the distance,

With the Capitol arming a resistance,

The Capitol's sky fleet deployed,

Firing upon Toll’s ship, as the ship gets partially destroyed.

Yet with a well placed ball,

The sky naval ship falls.

One by one the sky navy’s ships explodes,

Leaving rainbow clouds shaped like toads.

With the pirates untouched like a specters,

Piloting the flying dutchman across the sky’s seven sectors.

The Pirates landed on the Capitol’s ground with their blood stained boots,

scouring the land for all its loot.

Finding the mythical key of the Sea King’s treasure chest,

That contains riches and wealth, only achieved by the best.

The pirates celebrated their new riches with rum,

And toasts to new adventures to come!

During their celebration their bounties increased,

Which warranted a greater feast.

Toll proposed a quest to find the Sea King’s treasure,

Which will grant a life of leisure and pleasure.

 At first with it was met great highs,

But upon pondering it was met with many neighs.

The celebration returned to their new prizes,

And in the morning, they said their goodbyes.

With every pirate abandoned the team,

Leaving Captain Toll, blowing off steam, 

By setting sail west,

Embarking on his quest.
