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.
