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.
