Beneath the Crust

A peaceful planet at first sight
A place of blue tranquillity
Clandestine force beneath the crust
Of sulfur, magma, smoke and dust

A sleeping giant to awake
And face the consequences of
Clandestine force beneath the crust
Of sulfur, magma, smoke and dust

At any moment anon, striking deadly
Extermination supreme, unforgiving
Chaotic violent end, mass extinction -
A constant dream in my head, or expectation?
