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.
