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.
