Unbreakable sphere
With cracks far and near
As alive as the people
Left quaking in fear
The cracks move and shift
As land masses drift
The magma beneath
Flows along in its rift
Emerging as lava
To smooth out the cracks
But sooner or later
They always come back
No matter how broken
The Earth still spins on
The pieces held captive
By gravity’s song
