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.
