Ganga.

• 
  
  You throw all your holy garbage into the river, 
  Because for you the river is the only place worthy.
  You forget that you're polluting the river.
  
  The river silently takes it all in. 
  You ignore the receding muddy water,
  and go deeper. 

• 
  And then it's too late. 
  The river has turned away from it's course. 
  Too far to reach.
  
  Retreat. 
  NOW. 
  Let the river flow.
