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.
