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.
