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.
