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.
