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.
