A String Of  Pearls,  Like  A  Necklace. 
   Glowing In Offensive Colors. Luring.   
                                          
                                  
           Mall           
                                  
                                          
 A Few Ways To  Get Betrayed: Being  Sold 
 Broken Items  Or Mimicry, Being Recorded 
 (For What Purpose?),  Being  Ascribed  A 
 Negative Value And  Getting  Kicked Out, 
    Or Beaten, Getting Requisitioned To   
 Operate  Some Facet Of  The Body  (Being 
 Cared  For  Enough  To  Fear Losing  Its 
 Favor,  Yet Not  Enough To  Meaningfully 
                 Survive)                 
                                          
 Evokes  The Sense  Of Scavenging, But It 
 Is A  Projection And A Mirage - It'S All 
  Controlled And Coreographed, Presented  
 Like  A  Gift,  A  Reward  For  Nothing. 
         For Being So Beautiful.          
                                          
 With  That In Mind, Is  There A  Choice? 
                                          
 It'S Easy  To Grow  Lazy With  Its Ease, 
 And Leave Your Network  Of Minor Streams 
 And  Animal  PoolS In Dissaray, And With 
 The  Waning  Of Your Secret Wells,  Your 
 Depencence  On   The  Mall   Will  Grow.
