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.
