Maud's Disastrous Poems
The Earth's Core, As Compared To Mine
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe core of the Earth is solid,
liquid, always shifting in density.
The heat and pressure are always immense.
It is composed of nickel and iron,
tungsten and gold.
Not mine.
I don't really care, though.
My core is mostly cool,
dike, basalt, gneiss.
There is still a blazing innermost section-
devoted to Pinkamena.
It burns hotter than the metal core.
It is denser than the gold.
Keep your planet
and I'll keep to myself.
