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.
