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.
