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.
