I&M Sanitary Canal as a Swimming Hole??!

Would you be
    As shocked as me . .
      To hear local teens . . .
             Hang out  . . .
                  Down in . . 

The  Sewage  Canal!!!

          Yup . . .
       I've seen them wading through . .
          And . . 
            I seriously wonder . .
    How their parents feel . .
            About their teens soaked in sewage . . .
              Running that outfit through
family washing machine?
         Or that pair of new sneakers dripping sewage on the floor by the back door?

I  am  seriously  grossed  out!!
   What about you??
