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.
