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.
