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.
