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.
