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.
