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.
