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.
