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.
