Once upon a time, there lived a prince.
He made the people cringe and wince.
Prince David acted like he knew so much.
The truth was he was out of touch.
The decisions he made were never wise.
The negative outcomes just grew in size.
He saw no need to think things through.
Thinking was hard. He didn’t want to.
Every week he heard his advisers wail,
“Failing to plan is planning to fail.”
He brushed them off with a wave of his hand.
He was too ignorant to understand.
The prince ignored their advice.
Conceit was his greatest vice ...

This rhyming cautionary tale looks at the pitfalls of arrogance and conceit. It is approximately 670 words.
