not long ago it was it seems
you were in a beach somewhere
dressed in flowers only and
worshipping the grateful dead
as you dropped acid by the bucket
into the sea

now here you are i see you
fully clad in the river
taking ritual baths
with brahmin marks
on your forehead and those
funny pony tails

om mataganga jai you say
om mataganga jai
soon this river will flow
into the sea i see
om mataganga jai
