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.
