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.
