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.
