The year 1966. Manson was on his spree Hippies chilled the breeze. Chicks dancing with rubies on hips. Then came 1967 Hendrix wowed the crowd Janis Joplins soul came out Music splashed Hallucinogenic heaven. 1968, patterns of clothing Seemed to be from faraway. It wasn't American to the main stream Still wouldn't be today. 1969, Woodstock, the time Of all togetherness, and weightless Rockers heads filled with dust and buds. Cities broke to riots Gangbanging quiets over colors lust! 1970, met grandmammy Touched the farmers scene. Found the happy In the sixties baby in me. Today, now a mountain boy On a machine that cuts down anything In its way. The farming hand Making a living off of dirt and hay. Spit and clay.
