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.
