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.
