Tectonic Love
Plate margins shift
Under currents convect
Het up conversations
Three types:
Volcanic explosions,
Tsunami,
Earth quakes in relationships.
Constructive-divergent,
Two plates separate away from each other
Magma seeps thru
Eruptions form
Geological features
Volcanoes.
Destructive-convergent when
Two plates move towards each other
One goes under,
One pushes up, elevated.
Can create powerful earth quakes.
Tectonic plates of love.
Pans
Marzipan faces
Coming at me in a swarm.
Fake, grimace, rain scatters the path
Puddles of grease, largesse reflections
Streets beating against souls
Soiled, the sea rises and swallows whole.
