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.
