Deep and Current


Deep and Current


I ride the tectonic plate,
and travel where it wants,
What it may hit,
It's nobody's fault.

Magma seethes below
and finds new veins to course.
Vents express their anger
and searing heat cauterizes all.

Here atop the crust,
the Earth cooled its rage
and now stands in peace
to look upon the Sun and Moon.

Earth rage, Earth cries, Earth shudders
Earth shapes, Earth binds, Earth flows,
Earth blooms, Earth smells, Earth grows
yet we chase mind stuff and thoughts.

When my life matter ceases to be
this Earth will take me Deep and Current.
