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.
