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.
