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.
