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.
