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.
