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.
