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.
