"Plate Tectonic Rap" by J.  Jasin, geology student

Our world has got its plates;

Eruption & quake it anticipates.

They slide, compress, and subduct;

And cause hot magma to erupt.

 

From Pangea to our world today,

The plates map out their movement way.

Because of the movement of our lithosphere,

It’s earthquakes & volcanoes that we fear.

 

Along the faults the lithosphere slides,

And causes the plates to collide.

And someday Cali might be gone;

The Pacific Plate is stuck & a new one’s begun.

 

It’s a natural phenomenon we can appreciate,

That’s understood through lithospheric plates!
