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.
