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.
