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.
