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.
