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.
