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.
