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.
