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.
