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.
