Obsessed with seeing
super-sized continents
breaking apart, colliding
along the planet's seams
systematic earthquakes
extreme volcanism
stretching, baking, buckling
Earth's thin, fragile crust
younger oceanic rocks
captured for attachment
to older continental chunks
as changeable puzzle pieces
majestic mountain-building
with drip-drip dissolution
repetitious sequences
in a never-ending saga...
until the final finale
with depleted mantle heat
no driver of plate displacement
just flat, static, crustal sameness.
