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.
