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.
