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.
