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.
