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.
