A Midsummer Day's Boredom

Small-town teenagers
Roll noisily
Down bumpy black streets
On beat-up skateboards
In a Valley-summer haze.

Marilyn Manson
And Placebo
Pump into their brains
As powerfully as the blood
In their arteries.

Author's Note

Valley is capitalized because it specifically refers to the valley I live in.
Veins would rhyme, but that's not anatomically correct.
