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.
