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.
