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.
