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.
