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.
