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.
