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.
