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.
