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.
