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.
