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.
