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.
