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.
