Vermillion and saffron

Good Morning from Chennai!!
A common sight of vermillion and saffron
Smeared on anthills not for fun!
Dry garlands, posters and deities decorate the rusted fence,
Milk is poured … for snakes in deep penance.
Unnoticed, Chennaiites whizz past this lone roadside sanctum,
But sometimes you notice offerings of flowers, beedi and TASMAC bottle of rum.?
