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.
