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.
