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.
